“Kerry is . . . a man who opposes the death penalty, wants to restrict access to guns and voted against the resolution approving the start of ground operations against Saddam Hussein in 1991 -- just what you would expect from Ted Kennedy’s partner and Michael Dukakis’s running mate . . . .” (David S. Broder, “Testing The ‘04 Waters,” The Washington Post, June 5, 2002)

In September 2001, Kerry Said We Should Not Raise Taxes In An Economic Downturn. “The first priority is the economy of our nation. And when you have a downturn in the economy, the last thing you do is raise taxes or cut spending. We shouldn’t do either. We need to maintain a course that hopefully will stimulate the economy. . . . No, we should not raise taxes, but we have to put everything on the table to take a look at why we have this structural problem today. . . . you don’t want to raise taxes.” (NBC’s “Meet The Press,” September 2, 2001)

In April 2002, Kerry Said He Wanted A Larger Tax Cut And Was “Not In Favor Of” A Repeal. CNN’s Tucker Carlson: “Senator Kerry, . . . [many Democrats] [g]et a lot of political mileage out of criticizing [President Bush’s tax cut], but nobody has the courage to say repeal it. Are you for repealing it?” Kerry: “It’s not a question of courage. . . . And it’s not an issue right now. We passed appropriately a tax cut as a stimulus, some $40 billion. Many of us thought it should have even maybe been a little bit larger this last year . . . . [T]he next tax cut doesn’t take effect until 2004. If we can grow the economy enough between now and then, if we have sensible policies in place and make good choices, who knows what our choices will be. So it’s simply not a ripe issue right now. And I’m not in favor of turning around today and repealing it.” (CNN’s “Crossfire,” April 16, 2002)

In December 2002, Kerry Flip-Flopped. NBC’s Tim Russert: “Senator . . . should we freeze or roll back the Bush tax cut?” Kerry: “Well, I wouldn’t take away from people who’ve already been given their tax cut . . . . What I would not do is give any new Bush tax cuts. . . .” Russert: “So the tax cut that’s scheduled to be implemented in the coming years . . . .” Kerry: “No new tax cut under the Bush plan. . . . It doesn’t make economic sense.” Russert: “Now, this is a change, because let me show you what you said in September of 2001 when I asked you the very same question.” (NBC’s “Meet The Press,” December 1, 2002)

A Massachusetts Liberal Out Of Touch With America. “Kerry is . . . a man who opposes the death penalty, wants to restrict access to guns and voted against the resolution approving the start of ground operations against Saddam Hussein in 1991 -- just what you would expect from Ted Kennedy’s partner and Michael Dukakis’s running mate . . . .” (David S. Broder, “Testing The ‘04 Waters,” The Washington Post, June 5, 2002)

I really think tha John F. Kerry will get the RATs nomination. The Kennedy crowd & MA Rats will give him enough support. The fact that the Convention is in Boston & not NYC speaks volumes......Kerry is a shoe-in unless his loose cannon wife messes it up.

Do you know if Kerry claims to be a Catholic? His record on PBA is horrible.

I don't know if he is Catholic or not. I wondered at the time they picked Boston if it wasn't going to be to annoint Kerry. He is going to have a hard time out here in flyover Country!

Incredible job. Thank you for all the in depth info the the opposition party candidates.

I don't know who will get the nod, but I'd bet a donation to FR that Edwards will get the VP nod. They're too stupid to figure out that even North Carolina won't vote for him!

And they have to put him on the ticket. He's getting all the trial lawyers money. Too much green for them to pass on.

Kerry is on the list of pro-abortion Catholics. Others are Daschle, Murray, Kennedy, Landrieu, Harkin, Biden, Collins, Dodd, Leahy, Mikulski and Reed.

If Kerry gets the nomination it will only be because he is willing to fund his own campaign. However, he will be acceptable only to the liberal Northeast, CA and the Northwest.

He needs a personality transplant. His disdain for ordinary folks will not play well in Peoria, IMO. It's also going to be difficult being 'for the little guy' when you're living in a Back Bay mansion courtesy of your wife's trust fund from her dead REPUBLICAN husband.

I have Jury Duty in the Dallas County Criminal Courts today, so I'll be busy dishing out some Texas Justice. Where's the rope?...

See ya'll tomorrow probably (unless I get picked)...

Kerry is a dream nominee for Republicans and the designated 2004 hara-kiri victim to open the way for the real Democrat candidate (Hillary) in 2008.

Reputedly, Kerry comes out of the proud sexual tradition of JFK and William Jefferson Blythe: rest not, until one has done the horizontal mambo with every being--animanl, vegetable and mineral--on the planet.

Then there is the question of who funded his political career. Blythe received major funding from the Cali cartel in 1992 and the Chicom security services in 1996. Who owns Johnny?

Thank you for all that hard work; 'tis duly put in the file for future reference.

It would seem that Kerry's time has come and it has gone.

As a way of bumping this...
