    I don't think the GOP is having nightmares over Kerry. But he will be a good opponent in the Fall, and the election will probably be a close one.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

      Well, I've said it before wrt Kerry but might as well repeat it, when both parties were telling him to stfu, he kept trying to get to the bottom of the BCCI scandal. Frankly, I'm surprised he's still alive... He appears to have some integrity and that is a rare commodity in Wash DC...

        In my experience, integrity is not that rare in Washington DC.

            Not enough integrity to refrain from coopting Dean's message of being an anti-establishement candidate when you can't get more establishment than him.

            Still, I would vote for Kerry everyday over Bush.

                    He wasn't establishment when he was trying to expose BCCI.

                      I'm still wondering what this fantastical, second Washington DC DanS is talking about.

                          Washington DC runs on integrity. If you don't have it, you won't last long. I bet you guys have much less knowledge about this than you believe.

                              I have been amazed by the folks here who think that a Bush-Kerry race will be competitive. But, and I hit myself on the side of the head when I realized this, from the perspective of the median poster here why shouldn't it be close.

                              The median poster here is young, more radical in their views than the public at large. We have a huge foreign voice here that the public at large never hears.

                              Few people here voted for Bush last time. People here have an axe to grind with Bush. Most people here are upset about the war. Most people in the public at large supported the war and will support the continued occupation of Iraq for at least another presidential term.

                              The political center, as defined by the majority here, would be found just off the left edge of the map being used by the American public.

                              Sure, you folks think Kerry has a chance. I think he better hold on to his senate seat.

                                Just like you have an ax to grind with Northern Democrats??
