I absolutely love this. They manage to take an article about how smart Kerry is and turn him into an insidious mole with a nose for scandals. Well done, "librul" media.

Until his presidential campaign, the biggest enterprise Sen. John F. Kerry (news, bio, voting record) (D-Mass.) had run was a county district attorney's office in Massachusetts with 90 lawyers in the late 1970s. By all accounts, Kerry was a skilled manager, running the office for an old-line district attorney and swiftly transforming a sleepy, nepotistic organization of part-time prosecutors into one of the most high-powered and innovative in the northeast.

"I saw for the first time John's ability to take in huge amounts of information, reach out to experts, set a course and lead," said J. William Codinha, who succeeded Kerry in the Middlesex County district attorney's office and now heads the litigation department at Nixon Peabody in Boston.

Almost 25 years later, Kerry brought the same voracious appetite for information to his presidential campaign. He has three dozen domestic policy councils, two dozen foreign policy groups, an expanding corps of consultants, and many informal advisers he calls -- about 15 per night -- before going to bed.

Yet Yahoo's title is "Kerry Seen As Information-Hungry Manager".
