Trip ‘doesn’t matter’: Kerry still won’t be ‘serious contender’
Boston Herald ^ | Dec 18,2006 | Jessica Fargen

Some political observers say Sen. John Kerry’s presidential dreams were dashed months ago and his trip to terrorist-supporting Syria this week won’t do anything to change that.

Before Kerry’s so-called botched joke, taken by many as an insult to American troops, he was a second-tier presidential contender, but the aftermath has knocked him out of the race for good, said Todd Domke, a Massachusetts GOP political strategist.

“I don’t think people take him seriously enough to be upset about it,” Domke said.

“It doesn’t really trigger more indignation because most people in the political world no longer consider him a serious player. No one really cares what he does.”

Larry J. Sabato, a University of Virginia political science professor who runs the school’s Center for Politics, said Kerry is no longer a contender.

“It doesn’t matter,” he said. “He joked himself out of the contest. He can meet with every dictator in the world and it won’t make any difference.”

I have about as much chance of being elected President as John F'ing Kerry does. Heck I have about as much of a chance of winning the Democratic nomination.

The democrats will never let Skerry run against a Republican in a presidential election again. They are smarter than that. Skerry makes all democrats look as dumb as he is.

It's still treasonous behavior. I don't know why we put up with this kind of cr*p.

Ouch.

Even a laughingstock gets to think about all the attention.

You don't rate even that, JFK.

Even Democrats when in a moment of honesty, know their boy John F'n Kerry is an elitist, condescending snob not worthy of a serious shot again at the POTUS

I work with several and all to the person had to hold their nose to vote for him last time.

All to the person would not vote for him again. He is poser and loser.

From left to right or right to left, which is dumbest. I think it's probably a tossup.
