115. A 100,000 plus vote gap was too wide to challange
The problem is NOT that you complained that he should have fought longer than the best lawyers in the Democratic party thought justified - it's that you said things that were beyond any sense of fairness. To suggest that a man who spent nearly every waking hour for the last months of the campaign and incredible amounts of time over the 2 years prior to the time working to win, to be accused of throwing the election for someone who he clearly dislikes because he was in the same fraturnity - not even at the same time is disgusting.

If he did this don't you think that he would at least have negotiated not to be be brutally slimed. I assume he would have protected Teresa, at least. Not to mention having his and Teresa's kids spend most of a year working on the campaign as did many of his life long friends.

Believe what you want - but show some common sense and decency. It would seem you should be able to agree that John Kerry was smeared enough by Republicans and refrain from smearing him yourself - unless you want to be considered as one of the smearers.
