Kerry has less charisma than a dead mackeral. The only thing he has going for him is Sen Heinz's widow's bottomless campaign coffer.

Kerry is no moderate. his voting record is hard left, and is in tune with the falling in the river liberal Chappy Kennedy. On Key Votes, Kerry Voted 100% Of The Time With Senator Kennedy In 2001, 1999, 1998, 1993, 1992, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, and 1985. Over the course of his Senate career, Kerry has sided with Senator Kennedy 94% of the time for key votes. (Roll Call Key Votes, oncongress.cq.com, December 2001) Kerry Has A Lifetime Rating Of 26% From Citizens Against Government Waste And Is A Long-Time Supporter Of Federal Funding For Boston's "Big Dig." Former Senate Government Affairs Chairman John McCain called the project "the biggest, most costly public works project in U.S. history." The "Big Dig" was estimated to cost $2.6 billion when it was approved in 1985. The cost to date has totaled more than $13.6 billion. ("Congressional Ratings," Citizens Against Government Waste Website, www.cagw.org, Accessed January 7, 2003; Natalie M. Henry, "Senate Commerce Investigates Overspending On Boston's 'Big Dig,'" Environment And Energy Daily, May 3, 2000) Kerry's Lifetime Liberal Vote Rating From Americans For Democratic Action Is Five Points Higher Than That Of Fellow Massachusetts Liberal Ted Kennedy. While Kennedy only rates an 88 lifetime average, Kerry has a lifetime average of 93. (Americans For Democratic Action Website, www.adaction.org, Accessed December 9, 2002) Kerry And Kennedy Had Exactly The Same Low Rating From The American Conservative Union In Both 2001 (4%) And 2000 (12%). Kerry's lifetime rating from the ACU is a shockingly liberal 5%. (American Conservation Union Website, www.acuratings.org, Accessed December 9, 2002)
