9. From had to be dragged into supporting Kerry when Lieberman

took a dive in the polls and Edwards didn't catch on. I think Clinton had alot to do with making From put the DLC behind Kerry.
Kerry represented the furthest left in the DLC and maintained a liberal voting record despite his membership in the DLC and the pressure of those Democrats who governed as centrists and tried to lead the party further right.
Not one of From's favorites. Especially since Kerry appointed two liberals, Durbin and Tubbs-Jones to represent his interests at the DNC.
