Kerry's calculation ["Lurch" Kerry's campaign strategist spills his guts]

I'm absolutely shocked--you mean to tell me that Jean Francois Kerry allowed political considerations to determine his vote on whether our nation should go to war? Say it ain't so! //sarc off//

I'm not sure why anyone regards Bob Shrum as an expert on political campaigns. I don't think he has ever been on the winning side.

P.S. I heard a rumor that Jean Francois had been to Vietnam. Can anybody else verify that?

[AnAmericanMother]

Those rumors just keep flying around, but I don't know anybody who saw him there. . . .

He says he has this hat . . . but you know what liars those politicians can be . . . .

The one thing you can say about Kerry is he never saw the moonbats coming.

Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus

[massgopguy]

I wonder if he took the Scaramouche out for a spin this weekend?

[Dilbert56]

What might make Kerry President was his top priority. What was good for the country was not factored into the discussions.

This guys track record is 0-8 in POTUS elections - enough said.

The poor man is like Jimmy Carter - he is grasping for a positive legacy.

It's not there.

Kerry should run for President again.

[avacado]

Mr. Shrum said that Mr. Kerry was skeptical of Mr. Bush's claim that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and that he "didn't trust Bush to give the diplomatic route a real chance."

I am calling BS on that!

NOTE THE DATE:

"Dear Mr. President: ... We urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraq sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."

Sincerely,

Letter to President Clinton
Signed by Senators Tom Daschle, John Kerry and others
October 9, 1998

I see a moonbat a risin’
I see much troubles on the way,
I see a hurricane a blowin’
I see a Hillary campaign!......

I thought it was Cambodia?

"I'm not sure why anyone regards Bob Shrum as an expert on political campaigns. I don't think he has ever been on the winning side."

He never has won on the Presidential Side. He is such a creep I almost feel sorry for Kerry.

[ArtyFO]

He’s trying to get a new gig. 2008 is approaching and he’s not employed yet.

[Diogenesis]

"I will be voting to give the President! of
the United States the authority to use force-- if
necessary-- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I
believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass
destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat
to our security."
- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002

I was there for 2 1/2 years and I never saw him. He didn’t hang out in the To Doc street joint that I patronized.

Exactly. You want to lose a national election cycle?

Hire Bob Shrum.

[seanmerc]

From your lips to God’s ear...

[Jake The Goose]

Bingo - maybe we should express fear that “BOB SHRUM IS COMING”

With his record - if someone hires him - we should rejoice

[MarineBrat]

[noname07718]

I was in Cambodia, (Not officially) for about an hour and I didn’t see him there.

[deputac]

His track record for elections is bad, but his story mirrors what Edwards just went through...asking advisors what their vote should be. Edwards even copped to it, saying he shouldn’t have listened to advisors.

That should be enough to make sure you never win another election, but, alas, he has a (D) next to his name.
