While subbing for Glenn Reynolds Ann Althouse writes:
[Sen. John] Kerry is a man who doesn’t understand that he was a terrible candidate.
Few people understand their terrible at anything. And when they do realize it they don’t often admit it to friends or family let alone a reporter.
We live in a political media age where even […]
The picture of Sen. John Kerry eating alone in a mess hall in Iraq was so good. It fit perfectly into the Right’s view of Kerry as an aloof man who despises and insults American troops. Too bad it was too good to be true:
This photo has been triumphantly pointed to by conservative bloggers who […]
Sen. John Kerry finally apologized. It’s about time:
As a combat veteran, I want to make it clear to anyone in uniform and to their loved ones: my poorly stated joke at a rally was not about, and never intended to refer to any troop.
I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted to wrongly imply anything […]
The fallout from Sen. John Kerry’s “stupid troops” comment continues. The Boston Herald is embarrassed to have him representing Massachusetts. A paranoid rant instead of an apology will do that. Kerry’s supporters on his weblog are in the same state of denial as the Senator [see here and here]. The guy claimes he “botched” a […]
Before I accuse Sen. John Kerry of lying about the percentage of kids who graduate from high school I want someone to give him a chance to explain himself. I’ve backed a President who isn’t known for his outstanding use of words. The least I can do is give Senator “I lost in 2004 but […]
Serving in the armed forces never made Sen. John Kerry sympathize toward them (at least when it didn’t serve his personal political gain). On Face the Nation Kerry told Bob Schieffer, “And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, […]
Prepare for the return of Kerry’s House of Ketchup. That assumes he runs for President again and stays married to Teresa. I’m sure he’s really considering running again or else why would he even bother telling Tim Russert that he would sign Form 180 and release his military records?
“Mark that Date!!!”

It looks like John Kerry is being brow beaten into giving up some of his post-election cash.
Two advisers who have spoken to Kerry about the money said he likely will donate a substantial amount to Democratic committees and candidates for the 2005 contests and 2006 congressional midterm elections.
That may ease Kerry’s conscience, but it won’t […]
Ann Althouse digs out John Kerry’s concession speech. At the time I thought it was classy and dignified. Now, in light of the news that he didn’t spend all the campaign money he asked supporters to give, he comes off as a cad.
“Can that Kid Get His Quarters Back?”

When a candidate is given their party’s Presidential nomination he’s just not a Presidential preference. The nominee becomes the leader of his party. Losing may not be tolerable to those Bush bashers who hate Jesusland, but the seasoned, smart Democratic players could understand that defeat is possible. What the Democrats won’t be happy with is […]
If for some odd reason you’re still undecided between Bush and Kerry, read this interview of Steve Gardner who served with John Kerry in Vietnam.

The al Qa Qaa story may have run out of steam for Sen. Kerry. That’s what Wizbang’s Paul thinks.

John Kerry had this quip at the Madison Kerry rally featuring Bruce Springsteen:
When George Bush heard the Boss was playing, and was going to be here with me today, he thought they meant Dick Cheney!
Kerry should leave the bad anti-Bush humor to Jon Stewart and Michael Moore.

The Chicago Tribune’s Frank James has a story today on what Sen. Kerry has been avoiding throughout the campaign: his Senate record. In the story, we find Kerry didn’t get much legislation passed. Bush says five pieces, Kerry says 56, and FactCheck.org counts 11. There’s quantity, but then there’s quality. Here’s how James describes some […]
Let’s end all pretenses (what little intelligent readers still had) that the NY Times cares about getting the story right. That newsroom is so sloppy and Kerry-centric that they ran a story blaming the Bush administration for something it had no power over.
The paper accused the administration of failing to guard very powerful explosives that […]
