"So what? John Kerry can win in a state that almost never elects Republicans? Big effing deal."
It is still worth remembering that Weld's errors were (1)he was trying to be nice, (2)he did allow a lot of stuff from Kerry's mouth go unchallenged.
I don't even live in MA but I will bet that the Boston Globe probably has not asked Kerry a single serious question or did any investigative reporting on him in 25 years. I will also bet that anything of the sort comes from the Boston Herald and is sneered at by the liberal elites.
