Kerry 'Thinking Hard' About Another Run In '08
Yes, I'm surprised too...
UNITED NATIONS (where else?) (Reuters) - Former Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry said on Thursday he was seriously thinking about another White House bid in 2008 and will decide before the year is out.
"Lovey, how much is in the Barclay's checking account?"
"I will make that decision toward the end of the year, but I'm thinking about it hard," Kerry said in response to a question at the Latin Economic Forum at the United Nations. "If you can get help me find 60,000 votes in Ohio ...," he joked, referring to the close race in that state on which his 2004 loss to President Bush hinged.
He's not joking, it's the Dem Meme - Republicans don't win elections, they steal them!
Kerry, a U.S. senator from Massachusetts, has criticized Bush on a range of issues, particularly the war in Iraq.
And has written a whopping three bills in his entire 20 year Senate career.
On Thursday, he focused on Latin America, saying Bush lost interest in the region after the September 11 attacks.
Well, except perhaps for all those illegals coming in from Mexico...
"Relations between the United States and Latin America today are at their lowest point since the end of the Cold War," Kerry said.
You think Hugo Chavez has anything to do with that, Senator?
Other Democrats seen as potentially seeking the nomination include U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton, former Virginia Gov. Mark Warner and Kerry's former running mate, John Edwards.
One thing's for sure - our bench is deeper.
