Even the Democrats wouldn't be dumb enough to nominate him again.

To John Kerry:
Please run! Please, please, please! Maybe you could get Howard Dean to be your running mate. Collectively, you two could set the Democratic Party back another 50 years.

Actually, don't you think he'd make a good VP for Hilary?
a) no one would knock her off for fear he'd be put in charge
b) he's already used to being subserviant to strong women

Hehe. He thinks people voted FOR him. What votes he got were votes against Bush...
The other part he doesn't realize was that close to 54% of Americans didn't so much vote for Bush as they voted against his insane and disastrous idea of how to run the country.

Did Kerry blame the guy standing behind him for missing the catch?
"The SOB pushed me..."
Faith+1 is quite right, though: most people didn't vote FOR Kerry; they voted AGAINST Bush. IMO, a lot of Republicans did the same thing in '96 and, to a lesser extent, 2000.

Not having hand-eye coordination is one thing. Pretending to have it when you don't is something else.

Follow the money. He has $16M on hand. He can buy a seat at the table at least through New Hampshire. Hillary is over $17M cash on hand. Bayh is at $9.6M. The game is expensive and he saved enough from the last one to ante up.

Any Presidential candidate who loses with money still left in the bank is either (a) incompetent or (b) stiffing his vendors.

Rob FIlomena said "Laugh it up, but if the elections were held right now, he'd win."
That's the point. There is NO election NOW. The only campaign going on now is the constant barrage of BS everyday from the antique media. The Bush/Kerry election was over in 2004. Over a year has passed since we had speeches, conventions, advertising, etc. Bush is no longer campaigning. Neither is Kerry. Bush will retire to Crawford in less than 3 years.
Statements like that are as useless as the constant hammering that we hear from the press about the "polls", as they try to create news. I heard today that a new poll said that something like 57% of people said that they will vote Democrat in the fall.
But who is this unnanmed Democrat? What is his/her platform? What does he/she stand for? How well did the campaign go? How well did he/she express their vision for the future? Who is his/her opponent? How well did his/her opponent do in the campaign, expressing his/her ideas and vision? The majority of the public won't even pay attention until after Labor Day. That's why we have election days on the first Tuesday in November, with an campaign leading up to it. We decide. We speak. On election day. Anything said at any other time is just hot air.
Polls held at other times are just fill. Or wishful thinking on the part of the left and their accomplices in the press.
