Story here.

Just on the purely personal level, I can't imagine the letdown. After seeing the exit polls on election day afternoon, Kerry and Co. were certain that he was the next President. Now, he makes this botched joke about getting "stuck in Iraq" and it's clear that his own party doesn't want him. Johnny, we hardly knew ye.

FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line
Had he actually won his party's nomination, it would have guaranteed a Republican president.

I think a lot of us have a renewed opinion of Kerry.

And what candidate do the Repulicans have to put up that has any national appeal?

It does not seem to me that either party has put up a solid candidate with any widespread appeal as of yet.

I knew I liked DQ and NP. I loved Dean! I even loved the speech that killed him. I thought it was totally blown out of proportion.

It really was a shame that an emotional display cost him his nomination, and then Frankenstein (Aka Kerry) had to appear in his place.

In hades.
In recent memory I have not seen one politition who has had more of a superiority complex than Kerry. He thinks he is so much better than everyone else, and it comes through in all the speaches I have seen him give.

Good bye, it's not been nice knowing you...

Gotta say, I think Bush had an equal attitude in the last election and it didn't seem to hurt him at all.

But part of Kerry's thing is he took it personal that Bush beat him in the last election. He cannot get over himself. I realize that Bush may have come off that way as well, but to me, he didn't let it get in the way like Kerry did.

Well, if you look at the shenanigans concerning Blackwell in the state of Ohio, you can understand why he might take it personally.

Gee, I really don't remember saying that. If you have to make up statements to argue against do you really have anything to say at all?

SP, you know that he will make an argument where there was none. Why did you even respond with anything but a "yes"?...

Don't know about that guarantee, happy. A hillary/barack ticket could garner the majority of the female and black votes. I don't know the #s as well as the rest of you but that seems like a formidable ticket for any repubs to take on.
