John Kerry Everyone knew that this election was as referendum on the Republicans. They have squandered their political capital, done some shameful things, and have become lazy, complacent, and corrupt leaders. For the Democrats to pick up some seats in both houses, probably even enough for a majority, really all they had to do was just stay quiet. Maybe a few new policy initiatives, etc., but the Republicans were really the ones who had to shoulder the burden of proof as to why they should remain in Congressional Power. Luckily, over the past couple of weeks, the Democrats have done so many idiotic things that have ended up hurting their chances and shifted some of the burden on them.

And then John Kerry spoke yesterday. This guy is the democratic party. He was their presidential candidate! Now everyone knows where he stands. What an ass.

He could just do some damage control, even if it was just a dumb joke, and simply apologize. But he doesn't seem to want to do that for some reason.

At least we know what our troops think.  ¶ 4:27 PM
