38. KERRY'S CAMPAIGN WAS A JOKE
I was a regular at the Kerry Forums and if there's one thing that was clear about his campaign... it was a joke. Here's one example: Kerry refused to even mention the true extent of the Bush deficit because his own "deficit reduction" plan was a joke. In his "plan" he used the unified budget deficit numbers instead of the "on-budget" deficit. In this way he could pretend to cut the deficit in half in 4-5 years while sweeping under the carpet a TRILLION borrowed from the federal trust funds.
