Reply #159: Ahm, you mean the same press that was ready to write

[TayTay]

Kerry's obit? Ahm, I think Kerry was all but dead and buried by the press in Dec. I sincerely doubt that the journalists mentioned in the OP could have single-handedly convinced the voters in Iowa to change their minds like they did.

We have an Iowa caucus voter who responded to this thread. Nowhere in that response did he indicate that the press coverage made him change his mind or that Al Franken made him 'do it.' Ahm, there is no backup for this.

Besides, if I read this correctly, the OP didn't say, 'Vote for Kerry.' It seems to me it said, 'I don't hate him and if he ever ran again, I'd consider him. He's a good Dem and a good guy.' Ahm, shit, that seems fair and open-minded. I don't think it's a campaign poster though.
