1. Why are Kerry's wife and kids everywhere.

Why do they put them out there? Do people like this? I could care less but I am wondering if it is effective.

2. they are active in his campaign

his daughter took time off from school so she could campaign for him. others in his family are also campaigning for him. and i have seen them speak on the issues and give a speech and they do a good job of presenting kerry's side, so i would say they are effective. they certainly can't hurt. and hillary clinton did the same thing for bill clinton in his campaigns. john edward's wife and daughter are also involved in his campaign. gephardt's daughter is in his. i'm not sure how much the family of the other candidates are though.

5. Really- who wouldn't want Hillary campaigning for them?

it's bascially the same thing.

4. also shows how they think he would be a great president

not just the fact that they support him but can speak on the issues very well. when i saw them on cspan i thought his kids did way better than i thought they could do. and everyone who has seen his wife loves her.

3. Great. Maybe he can set the record straight

which was so twisted by Traub Sunday: "...It's no wonder that Chris Matthews tied Kerry into a pretzel when he pressed him on ''Hardball'' to supply a ''yes or no answer'' on Iraq."

6. And wasn't he marvelous ?

What a guy. I can't believe Matthews let him talk as long as he did without interrupting.
