While Senator John F. Kerry is "profoundly disappointed" with losing his presidential race last week, it is "conceivable" he will run again in four years, his brother and political confidant, Cameron F. Kerry, said yesterday.[snip]
Former aides said they have received conflicting answers about whether he might wage another campaign. One, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Kerry told a top campaign official he could not envision another run. Yet that same adviser attended a farewell party for Kerry's staff Saturday night in Washington and said Kerry told the crowd, "There's always another four years."

Such a run could pose a dilemma for Kerry: His Senate seat is up for reelection in 2008, and talk of a presidential campaign could spur challengers from both parties and force him to decide whether to seek reelection or run for the White House. He also would undoubtedly face Democratic challengers for the presidential nomination, including possibly Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York and his recent running mate, Senator John Edwards of North Carolina.

The former aide said Kerry plans to work closely with Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, who is expected to replace Tom Daschle as Senate Democratic leader, to form the "loyal opposition" to Bush. He also plans to revamp his staff and meet this week with Senate and former campaign aides to plot strategy for his political reemergence.

Friendly word of advive to TerAYza: whatever life insurance coverage you have on your husband, presently -- DOUBLE it. :)
Maybe the "watchdog press" can answer some of the questions we never had answered during the 2004 run.
-John Kerry- some selected, informative links...--
-Kansas City Kerry- "The Phoenix Project"--
-The Prince of Tides- Bush ads, Kerry ads, the Tides Foundation, and so much more--
-That MoveOn Ad Morphing Bush into Hitler? Some Links...--
-The Clark Effect- another Leftover from The Decade of Frauds--
Bring it on Kerry! We'll be waiting for 'ya.
I'm sure the Swiftees will be.
Kerry '08 is highly unlikely. Dims eat their own. Plus, most will probably lay down and pay homage to the Hildebeast. Anyone running in '08 will only be vying for VP.
Kerry/Edwards 2: This Time It's Personal
isn't that double jeopardy? ;)
It's also going to be harder for Kerry to get people to work for him if he DOES try.
He treated his people like dirt, and word of that has gotten around.
AND he bailed on them at the end: sent EDWARDS out to tell everybody "Thank you" in the wee hours of the morning.
With that right there, Kerry proved that he does what he always does: bails out on the very people he is supposed to lead.
He did that in Vietnam, he's done it all his life, and he id d it in this campaign.
Personally I cant believe this guy is still around to even breath after the Crushing Blow He took in these elections. But If he decides to do the stupid thing and come back for another crack at the highest office in the land then Hitlery and Scary will have a bloodbath of dirty politics. These 2 have enough dirt to bury themselves and the whole damn Demoncats. Id love to see them duke it out. I mean, does anybody have the gonads to take hitlery on and her "crimes"? Just Bring IT!
Kerry's bid: vastly increased Bush's minority support, united conservatives, lost Dem Senate seats, and gave Bush the highest voter turnout in the History of the US!
This is good stuffff! My... smells like Grand-ma's hot bread rolls- just out of the oven. This is scary $h**.
PING
It ain't over till it's over.
It's like Bubba and Hillary. Hillary's a little blackmailer. No one can tell me she didn't know about Monica.
Hillary's best case scenario is if Bubba croaked: He takes what he has on her to the grave and she could run on "I will continue the work of my husband" and pick up the base that has left the party.
In the end, I believe Bubba will do her in. Ah, sweet revenge!!
Thanks for the kind words... there's so much unanswered about scary John that it's almost Information Overload. I hope the Swifties are waiting in the wings- they did more, with less, than any other group I can think of. Now we just need a similar group for Hillarrhea!®...
I for one hope he runs....I could use another four years of gloating.
Pigeons are bad enought, thank you.
You wouldnt happen to have a string compiled on all of Hitlery's "crimes" and her Stand by your man guy would you?
Because we know she wouldnt have a chance to defeat GWB, but what's next or should I say who's next after 4 more years? She is poison my friend and the dirt has to be "kicked up" from now.
