Great Kerry article. Thanks. I'd missed that one. My own perception of Kerry is that he's SO ready, so itchy to get to work that this constant campaign stuff is only stimulating when there is a challenge to be met or when the energy is high. He is a bit of an adrenelin junkie which is why he likes extreme sports. If it gets dull he get bored. But he has become a consummate campaigner nonetheless and exudes some of the Clintonesque warmth that was lacking earlier in his career. Also, it embarrasses him a bit to fundraise. Think about it. His wife has enough to outspend Bush he he has to constantly-constantly do dog and pony shoes for $50,000 here $100,000 there. To him, he has better things to do, like realy work on fixing our problems. Bottomline he would make a great president but so far the political winds are not pushing him ahead. He's still in the pack but he needs a big burst and a few breaks. The media sure haven't given him any breaks. He has also been attacked ten times as much as any candidate. WHy? Because the GP fears him ten times as much as any other candidate. So it's actually a compliment. But with the Dem party so fragmented now he cannot get enough time to really break through and let people get to know him. Let me tell you, once you know him you'd vote for him. I have never seen a single person come away from a Kerry event not wanting to support the man. Even Republicans are impressed, especially when you put him side by side with Bush and see the Grand Canyon of difference between them in terms of qualification.

SHOULD WE TRUST THE SHRUB? TREASON ON THE RIGHT THE VAST RIGHT-WING CONSPIRACY - geocities.com A History of Right-Wing Attempts to Subvert the Constitution of the United States and the Democratic System of Government "In times of rapid social change there are bound to be conspiracies, both by those in favor of change and by those defending the status quo, the later more than the former in recent American political history. Detecting conspiracies when there are no conspiracies is a symptom of paranoia; detecting them when they exist is a sign of mental health." --Carl Sagan TREASON 1933 The Coup Plan Against FDR Few Americans know that during the Great Depression, some of America's wealthiest families including the Morgans and DuPonts--fearful of President Franklin D.
