Reply #43: I concur -- Kerry has been a dismal disappointment!

[Emillereid]

I too swallowed my misgivings of him as a candidate and worked at least eight hours a day seven days a week for him for months -- and his lack of leadership and guts on issues such as Iraq and now his wussy flirting with the recount/fraud effort in Ohio have totally sickened me. He was not a great candidate! I have said before that Election 2004 was his to lose and lose it he did -- he tried to take so many sides on the Iraq issue it was painful to watch. As I've said elsewhere, I for one won't ride that donkey again! Leadership is standing up for something when it's unpopular and maybe even embarrassing to do so. Unfortunately I think the election for Kerry was always all about his ego -- and not about the larger issues dealing with the direction of our democracy, etc.
