Kerry goes after Lieberman
As usual, John Kerry is opening his mouth and making no sense. He called Joe Lieberman "out of step" with Connecticut voters, despite Lieberman owning an 11-point advantage over Ned Lamont in recent polls.
Lieberman, as usual has taken the high road. Remember, he spoke at the Democratic convention in support of Kerry. And this is his reward. Joe shows more restraint than a lot of us would have. But Lieberman realizes Kerry's remarks have little to do with him. Kerry is gearing up for another run at the top.
If the Democrats turn to Kerry again in 2008, they will lose. As strange as some Democratic decisions have been over the years, I don't see them being that stupid. In presidential races, Kerry is a loser. You don't go back to a loser and expect a different result. The only man who did it was Richard Nixon, and he waited eight years after losing a national election. Actually, I'm still not entirely sure how he pulled it off.
Did Michael Dukakis run again in 1992? Did Walter Mondale give it a shot in 1988?
Well, I don't know. If they did, they were ignored, just like Bob Dole would have been had he'd run in 2000.
My message to Senator Kerry would be this: You had your chance. A good chance. You lost. Serve the country in the senate, and let someone else have a shot at the top.
It just makes sense.
