Make No Mistake – John Kerry is Running
Lots of 2008 news this weekend – here’s everyone’s favorite buffoon, on why he’ll make a good candidate on the second go-round:
As Senator John F. Kerry prepared to make a return to presidential-style politics with a classic day of New Hampshire campaigning, he said that the 2004 run left him tougher and more eager to fight.
”When you get knocked on your ass and lose a race, you’ve got to stop and reflect on what you’re doing, why you’re doing it, what matters, and what’s important. And I did,” Kerry said in an interview in his Senate office on Thursday. ”There’s a very different John Kerry now who is absolutely crystal clear about how I communicate what I need to communicate. . . . People are going to be looking for leadership.”
That’s class, ain’t it? You can tell Kerry’s been hanging around with the Nutroots®.
To say that leading Democrats welcome a Kerry campaign would be like saying my beagle welcomes thunderstorms:
Kerry’s efforts to launch another presidential bid have prompted grumbling from some Democrats, who question whether a second Kerry candidacy would be good for the party — or even realistic. Some party insiders expect that leading fund-raisers and strategists will push Kerry out before the race starts, in favor of a fresh face for a party desperate to retake power.
As for me, I wish Kerry well – I can’t think of a better way to spend the next three years than watching the foibles of JFK II in his continuing bid for all-time jackass…
I can’t believe he would put himself and Teresa through that again, plus the American people!

I suppose we could go into the psychology of how he’s perpetually running against the ghost of John Heinz, but what’s really sad is how even though he’s trying so hard to be the A-T JA, he really has no shot against the really serious contenders.
John is the way the truth and the life of the democratic party. Do not let campaign talk get us down. Listen to the 04 debates then you will realize what were missing.
