Is it true that Kerry conceded the race before all of the votes were counted in Ohio? Regardless, it does not help with me. I can not stand him. |

What luck... the kiss of death... just in the nick of time. If only Ted would endorse Hill today, my day would be complete. |

If Obama's smart, he'll say, "Thanks, but no thanks." I don't think Kerry's a bad guy, but his inept response to the swiftboating he got in '04 disqualifies him in The Right Stuff category. YMMV. |

Kerry doesn't matter in this race as much as he thinks he does. |

He DOES have something of an organization that might come in handy, but I would not seat him in the front row anytime soon. jf |

So dependable, Scott Ott: Obama Declines Kerry Endorsement by Scott Ott (2008-01-10) — Sen. Barack Obama today declined the endorsement of Sen. John Kerry, saying his presidential campaign is about “hope and change”, and he doesn’t want to “send mixed messages.” Sticking with his new stump speech refrain, Sen. Obama said, “They told us you can’t run a presidential campaign without kissing up to every Democrat who ever rode this donkey to defeat. But I say, yes…yes we can.” “They told us you can’t diss a former presidential candidate who’s a professional Vietnam war veteran,” he added, “But I say yes…yes we can.” An unnamed spokesman for the Obama campaign said the endorsement rejection is not necessarily permanent. “If we get to the convention and our campaign needs a little extra shove to put us over the top,” the Obama aide said, “then we might ask Sen. Kerry to…you know…do it.” |

I agree. It hurts Edwards, for what thats worth, and it doesn't make Kerry look that good, dissing the guy he chose as a VP candidate last time, but I don't see it doing anything for Obama either way. |

I think Edwards burned that bridge first. He has been very critical of Kerry's campaign decisions, and in particular, his not going after the Swift Boaters sooner and more agressively. Fair to say that Edwards would not have expected an endorsement after what he said, and I think it is clear that Edwards was going to run AGAINST Kerry this time if Kerry had managed to stay in this race. jf |

Jack, Kerry didn't go after the Swift Boat guys more aggressively because he knew they were right and he hadn't yet put together the lies he needed to put together in order to confuse the issue. Edwards didn't join Kerry's campaign because he believed in Kerry's platform - or in Kerry - he joined because he is a power hungry whore who wants to be in office, and he'll do anything, say anything, and be anything, to do it. That's what's wrong with most of these clowns. None of them want the job for the right reason. |

Nope, other than to tell Larry he is wrong and say, once again, that Kerry was more of a war hero than Bush or Larry was, even in his pixel dreams. [duck]As I said, nope...[/duck] jf |
