'Unfit for Command' coauthor eyes Senate run against Kerry

"Jerome R. Corsi, a 59-year-old author from Denville, N.J., who co-wrote the antiKerry book ''Unfit for Command," took his first formal step toward challenging the four-term junior senator from Massachusetts."

When someone merely exposes the truth, why is the word "anti" frequently used? I'm taking it that this isn't the Boston paper which is more centrist/conservative.

"If I have no backing, it may not work, he said."

Can some of you folks up in Kennedy country tell him he's not gonna get anywhere saying stuff like this?

And if this point has to be explained to him he might as well not even waste his time?

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Hope it happens! A "battle royale"! I'd like to see a steel cage match!

[Piquaboy]

I would love to see him sink Kerry's boat.

[Tuscaloosa Goldfinch]

I think it's a good idea -- he has name recognition; conservatives across the country would contribute; he helped save the country from Kerry. He might not win, and he might be wasting his time, but ours is one household which contributes to campaigns outside our own state.

The Boston Glob will serve as Kerry's PR outlet and bash Corsi mercilessly

It's about time somebody tries to beat that pompous Kerry at his own game. Now if only somebody else would do the same to the swimmer Senator from that same state.

[OKSooner]

Hey, I wish him the best. I'm just saying he's gonna have to stop making stupid statements about how much support he has it he wants to get anywhere.

" John Kerry is focused on his work for the people of Massachusetts."...

You can tell when a politician is in trouble when he has to fall back to the abv quote to cover himself.

The unfortunate reality here in the People's Republic is that a large majority of voters are glad that Mao and his puppet,Ho Chi Minh,won.

If this guy is lucky.he'll get 8% of the vote.And there's a real possibility that he won't even make it onto the ballot.

Politically,and in many other ways as well,Massachusetts is a lost cause

[Hadean]

My thoughts exactly.

I kinda like your governor.

[Roccus]

IMHO, it's just a fund raising feeler.

I kinda like your governor.

Romney's pretty good...certainly light years better that anything the democRATS have.But the problem with him (and this isn't really his fault) is that the Legislature is so heavily democRAT that they routinely override his vetoes.

Bill Cosby lives in Shelburne, Western Ma.

Altho he is no Republican, he is moderate enough and intelligent enough to get MY support to run against The Swimmer in 2006.....and wouldn't the Dems have a hell of a time trying to run down this Black man with a Masters in Education...?

'Day-O' and Calypso Louie would go bonkers...

You don't think if Corsi campaigns outside of the greater Boston area, he could beat him? I'm saying, west of Boston, and especially western MA, there are a lot of conservatives. The trick is getting out there to campaign. The MA newspapers, and media, are not going to get the news to people in western MA, so the people campaigning have to.

If they do that, cause a lot of exposure to the folks who never vote, and get out there to make their message heard, I think he could take Kerry. The trouble is, most folks out here don't bother because they don't hear about the conservatives, or the Republicans, for that matter, because they are basically shut out of the news. It's obvious to me, especially when you look at town/city populations, and then look at the number who voted.
