Reply #75: Kerry is running for Senate [View All]

[karynnj]

I listed votes, positions and who they are they are not "anecdotal stories". Kerry will do just fine in MA. His negatives are high because he has been smeared for three years WITHOUT A GOOD PLATFORM TO RESPOND FROM.

My allegiance is anything but blind - my eyes are wide open - I support Kerry because I support what he stands for. You don't which is fine. Hillary is not the candidate - and at least at Democratic events I've gone to the strongest thing she has going for her is the preception that she will win the nomination. The biggest negative is the perceived sleasiness and corruption. If she loses the lead or there are any scandals, her lead here will fade fast. (They did not think Kerry could win, but in general admired him a good person.)

Seeing that you are not a MA resident, I think it strange that you say that a man who has been elected to state wide office 5 times somehow has politics that they do not care for. He would never have won the elections that he did if he appealed to only white women. (By the way, when we saw Kerry in Boston, there were plenty of white males and blacks - not there for the event - who looked excited and happy to see their Senator.
