Is Kerry Healthy?
Edited on Wed Jan-07-04 02:31 PM by Jack_Dawson
I watched him on Hardball last night and dude looks very tired. He seemed as if he was laboring for breaths. Is he OK?

1. Just stop
On the other hand, thanks for shattering all the Dean opponents' preconceptions that it would be a Dean supporter who brings this up.

2. This is really not the place
to ask this if you're sincere. We're a bunch of Internet junkies not Kerry family/friends. If you're not sincere, then this is an unwise attack.

Please, isn't there enough nonsense around here already?



Wes Clark. He will make an extraordinary American President.

13. Agree
It doesn't help in the case of horrible, harmful rumors to keep posting more questions about it, sincere or not.

Posting to a Kerry blog might be somewhat less harmful than here, though. Yes, he has been looking tired for some time, but I attributed that to his putting forth 200% toward this race. His campaign didn't go well from the start, but rather than lightening up or dropping out, he decided to mortgage his home and go all out----a big win or lose for him. I imagine he's flying a different place every day, and speaking on TV and radio shows daily, to boot. I'd be tired, too.

Dean and Clark have more staff to help them, I think, and the others don't go that many places because of the $$$.

15. Posting to a Kerry Blog
Excuse me! Unless you want the rath of some serious Kerry supporters lynching you off the Kerry Blog, I suggest you think twice about posting this nonsense there or anywhere.

3. I'm not a Kerry supporter but
I have to believe that if he was suffering from the big C he wouldn't be running. Heck, he's not the only one who looks like hell. Dean's been looking like he could use a break himself lately.

Hope they all take good care!

6. Definitely Healthy
Um...considering the 18 hour days of campaigning and talking to voters, I think he looks perfectly fine.

You seem to forget that aside from politics, Kerry is quite active physically. He plays ice hockey, windsurfs, rides a motorcycles, and partakes in snowball fights on occassion.

Give Wesley Clark a few more weeks in the spotlight, and we'll see how he looks.

Peace.

7. Hey I'll be the first to admit Clark looked tired
on MIP Sunday. But Kerry looked...I can't explain it. Anyway it was an honest question but I guess this isn't the format. My bad.

11. Five o'clock shadow.
Kerry has a heavy beard. But, he's been carrying an incredibly heavy schedule, so I imagine there is some tiredness involved.

12. The lighting sucked
That and the fact that they are all tired. It is very tiresome to read all the posts that attack the other candidates. They are running and thank god they are. Stop the bitching.

8. God damn it, ALL the candidates appear to be exhausted
and I feel for Kerry. He's a great guy. I'll proudly canvas and vote for him in the primaries, and I'd be prouder to have him as POTUS.

Leave him alone.

14. Kerry is Awesome
This sort of tacky innuendo has been floating around from atleast 2 campaigns now and it is false!

John Kerry is in the best of Health and anyone who says otherwise should be ashamed!
