I fear it’s far too late to stop the Massachusetts bore from winning the nomination. But I have yet to find a single Democrat who’s actually enthusiastic about the pompous, do-nothing, faux-populist, Establishment blow-hard with the Vietnam obsession. Here’s Jack Beatty, NPR-style lefty, on having to sit through a Kerrython in New Hampshire:
Listening to him, I saw a long line of Democratic bores – Carter, Mondale, Dukakis, Bradley, Gore – who lost because people could not bear listening to them. John Kerry belongs in their dreary company. I fear he could talk his way out of victory – that, excited by his résumé, his panache as a war hero, Americans from coast to coast will be disappointed in the real man; that, just as we did at Dartmouth, they will long for him to stop his answers at the one-minute mark and by minute two will have tuned out and by minute three will pine for the terse nullity of George W. Bush.
John Kerry: resume without a cause.
