Somebody, anybody, should take Kerry aside, and say, "stop, please, just stop."
I would be fine with his nattering if he was not a going to be candidate and would make it clear that he is not. He obviously plans to be.
I miss the old days of blue collar democrats. Howard Dean has a portion of the right idea, but isn't quite getting the whole picture.
Talk to the unions about 30,000 jobs lost at Ford. Go places you might muss up your hair and get some grease on your pants. The GOP talks to these people every day, makes them all a shit sandwich, serves it to them, and they eat it up like mother's milk.
