Kerry Aides Blame Puffy, Bill Clinton, Daughter
Newsmax ^ | 11/5/04 | Carl Limbacher

Posted on 11/05/2004 8:29:01 AM PST by truthandlife

As the Kerry campaign disintegrates into oblivion, the finger pointing in the Democratic ranks has already begun.

The New York Post's must-read Page Six reports that numbers of notable figures in the 2004 campaign are being roasted by party insiders.

These include:

# Alexandra Kerry: The paper said John Kerry's daughter "made a splash at the Cannes Film Festival last spring when she appeared on the red carpet in a see-through dress."

Campaign "insiders snipe that all she did was rack up major expenses. 'She had an entourage of five people with her everywhere she went.' A hairdresser, makeup artist, publicist and two assistants. It ended up costing something like $8,000 a month. And she didn't exactly do anything."

# Sean Puffy Combs: The rap mogul made national headlines with his "Vote or Die" effort to get young voters to register and vote. But they never materialized at the polls.

"He was just a nuisance," the Post quotes one Kerry aide as saying. "The whole thing was a joke. No one outside of New York or L.A. gives a hoot about this guy. All he did was get himself press."

# Terry McAuliffe and Bill Clinton: The Post says Clinton and his top fundraiser who heads the Democratic party caused the disaster. The Post has reported that some analysts say Clinton's emergence in the closing days of the campaign "energized" the Republican base.

Sorry I missed your reply on the other thread. They get pulled so often one can't keep up. I guess there is a shortage of cyber space.

Neither did I hear GWB blame Clinton for any of the mess thrust upon him. It's called honor. Let the Dems self destruct. I say we encourage their edging to the left sooner or later they'll step off the cliff.
I hate the term Evangical Christians. Yes there were some out there but I bet it's more about Traditionalist and the Reganites.

"Vote or Die!" spokesman Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, right, narrowly avoided the Grim Reaper by turning up for a voting photo-op. As for some of the campaign's poster celebrities, it turns out that Paris Hilton and rappers 50 Cent and Ludacris aren't even registered to vote.

Found this, I don't know how reliable the source is. Didn't Paris claim at one point to be registed in two states?

Thank you, South Park. Trey and Matt came up with "Team America" and the college crowd around here loved it. Can't wait for the sequel.

" How about Jenna sticking out her tongue at the press? We had to hear about that forever. (I thought it was cute.)"

George Bush told one interviewer that as soon as he saw Jenna do that, he chastized her.

I doubt that a weirdo like Kerry, who takes his adult daughter with him to pick out a jock strap, would find anything inappropriate about her appearing topless in public.

i saw puffy on tv last night and thought he was rather gracious about it, siad people need not to be sore loosers and that it wasnt until late in the campaign that he realized that a non-partisan approach would have been better...

Amazing! Someone needs to work on converting him all the way.

Democrats just can't figure out that it was Kerry, the candidates fault. He WAS a traitor, he IS a traitor, Kerry IS a criminal, He IS a fake, a fraud.

The DemocRAT party is going to be interesting to watch, because aparently John Kerry has no intention of stepping down as leader, so if Hillary is going to run, she is going to have to challange him. They will be eating each other, LoL! They will become very divided, so you can bet the far left, both Kerry AND Hillary, are going to be swept to the wayside by the Zell Miller side, which is really their best bet. I doubt democrats will see that though.

It will be house cleaning time if they are ever going to have a party in shape to challenge the next Republican president hopefull, whoever that will be, perhaps Rudy Guliani?

No, I was referring to Barney Frank, thus the," Frankly, you are misinformed. He has his own Barney."

Kerry is at fault for his own downfall.
Nobody likes a nag.
Nag: 1. To annoy by constant scolding, complaining or urging.
2. An old or worn-out horse.

He constantly nagged at President Bush for 2 years before the election.
OK, so #2 only half way fits. People got tired of Horse face constantly spewing his liberal hate.

Good golly, what was that? Were they really so desperate for a "regular guy" photo-op that this was the best they could do? Why not just go with her to Victoria's Secret to pick out a bra? I'm so glad these creepy, classless people were kept out of the White House. Can you imagine the indignities? I get the feeling they could have topped Bill and Hillary's tackiness.

How quickly we forget the Deaniacs...many new Republicans have told me that Dean turned the off to the Dems.

They hid him toward the end, but his tubby angry presence permeated the Dems like garlic toast a day later.

Nothing. But they didn't blame anybody else either.

Ah, I see.

Never said they did. I was talking about their supporters.

>From the time Kerry got the Dem Primary nod, went snowboarding, fell, and blamed a Secret Service agent for making him fall, we knew Kerry would blame everybody except himself.<

Speaking of Secret Service, when do we taxpayers get rid of having to provide protection to this loser? Does protection end as soon as the election is over?
