John Kerry was probably our favorite presidential candidate - viable presidential candidate anyway (Kucinich was fun, but let's be honest, he was really just in it for the dating service). And for '08 you'd have to admit that Kerry would certainly be more lively than Hillary, and definitely more sane than Gore.
No really, it's tough to blog about the insane. It's like grasping at air, because you're not quite sure what they're talking about, nor can you document what it is they're refering to, nor can you research anything they've discussed. There is no there there, yet they've created an entire philosophy out of it. Or, as in Gore's case, a movie, and, apparently, a future support group for Lindsay Lohan.
Of course, this is not to say that we in any way would wish a President Kerry upon the world. But the material, people, the material during the campaign would just be endless.
But as much as we'd like to return to the heady days of windsurfing, wind-bag speeches and jock-strap shopping excursions, it looks like things are off to a humorous start a little early, because the man of the world can't even seem to get much of a cheer for his candidacy at the dinner parties he's throwing.
SEN. JOHN Kerry didn't have nice things to say about Sen. Hillary Clinton or his former running mate, John Edwards, on Tuesday night. But he didn't say anything bad about them either, according to witnesses.It's a steep hill to climb, we'll give him that. But he was at least on the right track with the menu, which was decidedly un-French.Kerry, who desperately wants to run again for president, had a dozen big-bucks Democrats to his Georgetown townhouse for pot roast and butternut squash.
According to a source who knows one of the attendees, Kerry started off by asking guests if he should run or not: "When no one answered, he launched into a speech about why he was the best candidate."
Now if only he'll take our advice and take that crucial next step, something along the lines of what this fine fellow is doing.
