Sitting in the lobby restaurant of the Renaissance Savery hotel, Kerry was overheard by an NBC News analyst saying "maybe I'm f---ing deluding myself here" and explaining that in order to run, he'd have to step down from the board of Bank of America and give up his ability to make paid speeches.

Kerry: “Maybe I’m ****ing deluding myself here.”
MAYBE? Truly sick in the head, these people never give up.
You know Mondale is only 92 years young.

Ding, ding, ding. I believe we have a winner. You'd think I would have spotted that by now it's getting so common.

Kerry.
Better choice than Hillary.
Kerry/Sanders is their best ticket. Unless AmyK catches on.
They are planning for a multi-ballot convention.
