Send Terry to France, please!
I can't believe the farce of a campaign that Kerry is running. I don't think he truly represents the Democratic party - I think the problem is a small group of people who are currently running that national party. Obviously this small group has no concept of what the mass of voters really care about.
By many people's standards I seem to be pretty liberal. I'm voting for Bush. I am quite unhappy about aspects of the Patriot Act, but I have and will contact my congressional representatives to take care of it. I can't, in good conscience, vote for a man who was fantasizing about escorting a secret agent into Cambodia. I really don't understand how anyone can vote for a man is so involved in his fantasy that he took out a cap and waved it in front of a reporter's face as window dressing for his Walter Mitty moment. This guy must have inhaled so deeply that he hasn't come down yet. These are serious times, and we need a serious candidate.
I do blame the mainstream press for not vetting Kerry more closely. I don't think that Kerry would have won the nomination if the primary voters had known more about him; the mainstream press was not doing its job. There were and are plenty of people in the democratic ranks who could have been far more credible candidates. Instead of screaming about the bloggers, the press should be staring in the mirror. They have reelected Bush.
