My guess would be Rice. She’s a Marxist while Kerry is just a liberal gigolo wimp.
Great, he’ll throw metals at the troops vs pin them on properly.
NOTE TO SELF:
I gotta run to WalMart and get several cases of popcorn...
What the heck, why not?
I mean, it didn’t really matter, Romney would be the same as Obama, so it’s reasonable to assume Romney would have tapped Kerry for this post.
I can’t wait to see the SCOTUS nominations Obama makes. But, as the anti-Romney, anti-GOPe crowd knows, Romney would have made the same selections.
No consequence to this election, right?
Good choice to stay home, right?
Paging Swift Boat Veterans..

“Ii liked that weapons system before I didn’t like that weapons system. OK?”
Panetta, a commie loving Sec of D (Google “panetta communist for the FACTS}. Now a military hating, LIAR, Kerry. What next? Give Putin a job as Asst. Sec of D
I need to ketchup on my reading as I though Kerry retired.
A reality check here folks. Remember the 2004 Presidential Elections? You, know the one that Senator “I served in Vietnam” Kerry lead the Democratic Ticket? Does anyone remember seeing his DD Form 219?
It was issued some seven years after Kerry completed his tour of duty in the USN as a non-rated reserve officer. It also included the phrase “Upon a review of a board of officers.” I wonder how many of the honorably discharged vets from the 1970s have that particular phrase on their 219s? Thank you President Jimmy Carter!
on the plus side: Kerry would have to vacate his senate seat.
Chances are, Sec of Def is a huge step down from Senate Aristocracy, so I would expect that he would not “report for duty”.
Sec of Def would force him into the spotlight and to be on the receiving end of congressional inquiries. Something he hasn’t done since he testified against real heroes.
His words then were of no consequence to his personal ambitions.
No - Kerry is a coward through and through. He’s long in the tooth as well as long in face.
When you are a Dem Senator it is best to retire or leave office as a Senator, unless you become Portus or Veep.
As did Byrd and Ted Kennedy.
I’m sure the rumor of consideration is the talk of the town, but every past-due dem senator in DC knows the position is beneath them.
A traitor and a coward as Secretary of Defense?
That would be like making a Marxist, America hating, Kenyan born Muslim, president.
All the comments seem to miss a big mention in this article- Obama is considering Susan Rice as Secretary of State. The lady who went of 5 Sunday Snooze Shows and lied about Benghazi. Obviously the Chicago boys think very little of the GOP’s ability to mount opposition to her in the confirmation process.
I gather the Senate will just “assume” them confirmed, just like they assumed a budget was passed? Because no way Kerry and Susan Rice can testify in front of the Senate.
Oh wait! We don’t have any senators with balls, do we. So they won’t be asked anything tough, like Libya or spending or...
I think we are going to get a whole slew of new Marxists in the 2nd term. Obama will probably create a Cabinet Position for Muslim outreach headed by the one handed hate preacher we extraditied from the UK!
Rubber bullets for everyone!
Defense???
He’s up for Hillary’s job
