Kerry could not beat a weak incumbent, saddled with an enormous deficit, multpile foreign wars (that he started), a sagging economy, and outrageous fuel prices.

Seriously. The frozen, severed head of Ted Williams should have come close to beating Bush this go round. Bush would probably have fared better in the debates than ol' Teddy Ballgame, but it would have been close.

The Dems wasted millions running this empty suit once. Their boosters (at least the ones with an inkling of common sense) will not back him (with $$$) a second time.

Be not deceived, big money is all that matters. Big money determines who gets to dance in November.

Kerry is done as far as President goes. Hillary is the nominee if she wants it, and she does. Nothing will stop her from getting the nomination. Nothing I tell you! bwahahaha

i hope she gets it, she will not win.

I'm considering registering as a Democrat, so I can vote for her in the primaries;)

The Clintonistas should be so out of touch, they'll try for the gay Dutch midget vote, lose, and scream about a stolen election for another 4 years.

Nah, moose... Watch Hillary, as the next 4 years play out. She'll be reinventing herself as a "conservative". Thing is people aren't that dumb... they know sincerity.

It is pretty easy to accept Christ, and become a Christian man. See New Testament.

It is harder to package John Kerry as a regular guy who likes football and beer. Try as they might, it did not fly over.

Is this thread a joke... The Democrats would only be stupid enough to elect him in the primaries so who knows what is going to happen. My guess is that Hillary will run, with Obama on the ticket as well. That is a powerful combo.

A black man and a woman. Yup, bring it on. I don't think we can top Reagan's 5xx electoral votes, but 400 should be easy.

That is a devisive combo. No one in politics is more polarizing than Hillary Clinton. Run Edwards with her. Obama's time will be later on. Save him for later.

Democrat John F. Kerry plans to use his Senate seat and long lists of supporters to remain a major voice in American politics despite losing the presidential race last Tuesday, and he is assessing the feasibility of trying again in 2008, friends and aides said yesterday.

Didn't Al Gore want to run again in '04?

Does that mean that he is going to go to work and vote and stuff for four straight years? This may be a break for the poor taxpayer. I wonder if he can type, staple and make copies?
