"John Kerry. When I was living in Boston I remember an editorial writer in The Boston Globe say Kerry couldn’t locate Massachusetts on a map if you spotted him Connecticut and Rhode Island.

If he thought for one second he could get away with it Kerry’d change his name to Kennedy, as witnessed by this line he delivered to the Communications Workers of America meeting Tuesday morning: “I believe we have to be a party and a country that gets back to asking why not again. Why not, in the richest country on the face of this planet, why not stop being the only industrial nation that doesn't provide health care to every single citizen?”

And who was it who said “I dream things that never were, and say ‘Why not’?” Well, yes, George Bernard Shaw, but what ‘60s American politican appropriated that line for his own signature? Hint: think Massachusetts, Democrat, Ke____y.

Unfortunately given Kerry’s left-of-mainstream liberalism – nationalized health care anyone? – he’ll fare a lot closer to another Massachusetts politician, Michael Dukakis, than anybody named Kennedy. For one thing, both he and Dukakis seem to have missed the Kennedy personality injection."
