A different take from the DAily Kos (post today)

"It's not all about you, John (0 / 0)

"It doesn't matter if Tweety or other commentators "straighten it out" - this was the lead story on every network news broadcast, and gave Bush, McCain and others a free shot to gin up their voters. I certainly hope it won't have an effect beyond, say, tomorrow, since Kerry is NOT on the ballot anywhere.

"But, I have the following message for Senator Kerry: John, STFU. This election is NOT about you, it's not about your sorry-ass reaction to being smeared in 2004, it's not a chance for you to redeem yourself. It's NOT ABOUT YOU, goddamn it, it's about Democrats having a chance to take control of at least one house. You should have learned by now that remarks will be seized on and used against your party - this is unforgivably careless of you. I worked for a lot of professional politicians for many years, and never have I witnessed this kind of egocentric, irresponsible, self-centered approach to speaking in public from someone at your level. The press is not interested in interpreting you correctly, John - therefore you cannot make statements that NEED interpretation. You're NOT an independent, a**hole, you're supposed to be a Democrat - think about your party for a change, not yourself.

''I'm not about to panic, but this is NOT what we needed a week out, with the press looking for any event to make their "horse race" stories more exciting

Even a few of the ultra liberal posters see the problem as Kerry's not the press.

LOL, the noise coming from Kerry is all ABOUT "Me me me me ME ME MEEEEEEEEEE!!" Does he talk about anything else? Even when slamming our President, it's really all about himself.
