"The Kerry I Know" So he's not Mr. Charisma. But he has courage, judgment, and intellect. Imagine that! prospect.org MY COMMENT: Love Kerry? No. Respect, admire, like him and want him to be President? Absolutely! Excerpt: John Kerry is a good, tough man. He is curious, grounded after a public and personal life that has not always been pleasant, a fan of ideas whose practical side has usually kept him from policy wonkery, a natural progressive with the added fixation on what works that made FDR and JFK so interesting. I know it is chic to be disdainful, but the modern Democratic neurosis gets in the way of a solid case for affection. Without embarrassment, and after a very long journey, I really like this guy. As one of his top campaign officials, himself a convert since the primaries ended, told me recently, this is pure Merle Haggard. It’s not love, but it’s not bad.
