The problem may be that there is no there there. In other words, there was no insight, because there was not much to see.
If this guy wasn't married to Ms. Ketchup, you'd almost feel pity I lied He's pathetic, but unworthy of even the minutest amount of pity I looked up the word PUTZ in Websters and there was his picture!
His whole campaign was a mock-umentary.
Evidently, the same people responsible for managing Kerry's failed campaign were the same ones responsible for this movie. Right?
"boobish and flailing" -- lol. Truer words never spoken.
Understated, authoritative... sure, all senior campaign guys obsess about how to get goats in lingerie into bedrooms and launch paranoid, obscenity-laced rants about vaguely unflattering magazine covers of their boy...
He even appears to have a valid point about the cameras not being allowed into the rooms where the big mistakes were made... "John, the public just *loves* war heroes! And at the convention, we're gonna play that to the hilt!"
Although produced by hardcore Dems, this film is decidedly anti-Kerry. The reason is simple. This is produced by the pro-Hillary crowd who want to make sure that Kerry is not a factor or a competitor for campaign funds.
Yep, forever one of life's great mysteries I guess. LOL!
I have a theory: Could it be that Bush got more votes?
Hmm, the author's main thrust seems to be that the film is so bad and so uninformative that it shouldn't be watched. No red meat here folks, just move on.
I think Kerry's people (and democrats in general) are so up in arms over this thing because it shows the inner workings of a democratic campaign first hand with it's stresses on appearances, doubletalk, pettiness and inanity. I'm betting it blows the lid off the perception of democrats as the "people party" and shows them for what they are: people who inhabit a different plane than the rest of us.
I'm really interested to see the small, but telling details of Kerry the man that you would expect to see reflected in the personalities he chose to surround himself with. I'll bet the entire, required democratic retinue was there in force:
- Cringing Yes-men, eager to please the "Great Man"
- Crawling, self-effacing bootlickers
- The team that created the Bubble in which an already-isolated Kerry became even more isolated from reality.
- The Enforcer whose job it was to keep the embarrassing personalities from Kerry's past from making contact with the candidate or from speaking publicly in support of him.
- Snivelling ex-hippies obsessed with soy milk and enviornment-friendly office products.
- Bitter women who became lesbians because of their unattractiveness to men and who still can't get other lesbians to date them, and so who have an awful lot of free time to devote to lost causes.
- Grateful affirmative action hires
- the diversity props.
- Anal-retentive European press monitors.
- The crowd that spends their day trying to condense "We need the support of the international community" down to a four-word catchphrase that can be chanted rhythmically at an anti-war rally.
- The race traitors who sell their own people out for their own personal benefit.
- The comittee that somehow selected John Edwards after spending weeks analyzing demographic and focus group data, only to pick the democratic party's answer to Dan Quayle.
- The spinmeisters that agonized for months trying to morph "Brand X" Kerry into "New and improved Super Kerry".
- The man who had to medicate Ter-Ay-Zuh every once in a while to get her to shut up.
- The person who gleefully told Kerry that this week's jibberish was even better than last week's.
- The misery ferrets who crawled through every slum in the country seeking the perfect example of conservative insensitivity.
- The diversity police who scanned every utterance of the President and his staff looking for words like "black", "latino", "gay", etc in the hopes they could find just the right quote to use out of context.
- The "Wrangler" who suppplied the press with enough alcohol and hookers to keep them compliant.
- The legion of semi-incontinent, overly-sensitive reflex gaggers who cringe and wail at the very hint of logic and who are paraded in front of cameras to illustrate "the mainstream of America".
- The photgenic welfare queens.
- The idiot who coined the phrase "pass the global test" and who prior to the campaign had been arrested for scrawling women's phone numbers on men's room walls.
- The platoon of make up artists charged with putting a new shade of lipstick on the same old pig every day.
- The speech coaches who tried to teach Kerry how to say nothing while appearing to say something.
- The body language experts who tried to make Kerry look convincing while saying nothing, and who got him to revive the "Clinton thumb-point".
- The scummy private detectives.
- The person who made sure that JFK had at least 62 Vietnam references per day, even when visiting a day care center or getting a cavity filled at the dentist.
- The bag men stationed to collect cash at every event.
I could go on and on, but what would be the point?
