Reply #39: why Kerry's my man

[ferventdem]

I like Kerry for many reasons:

-his foreign policy strength
-his intelligence and thoughtfulness
-his image -- he IS a genuine statesman
-his 100% rating from the HRC on gay rights
-his domestic proposals, including health care and security
-his wife -- the US needs to see a strong, intelligent, independent woman at its forefront

But one reason dwarfs all the rest:
He's the ONLY person in the field who can beat Bush. No matter our individual priorities, we must unite as a party behind the person who can win back the White House, and that person is John Kerry.
