It's the media that's perpetuating the lie that Kerry is unlikeable
Edited on Fri Oct-15-04 09:42 AM by glarius
Have you noticed that at the same moment that CNN is showing Kerry wading into adoring crowds....shaking hands, hugging people, laughing and joking with them.....they will have a "pundit" or "talking head" saying that Americans prefer Bush because unlike cold, unlikeable Kerry, Bush is warm and likeable.....There own pictures disprove their words! This is happening all the time. It's pathetic!


P.S....Bush doesn't come across as likeable to me....More like desperate and trying too hard for approval.....Besides that, has mean eyes...

2. I'm ashamed that I bought into that spin for a while.
But the more I started watching Kerry in interviews, at the convention, and at the debates, the more I've grown to really like him. He's not a warm and fuzzy type, but he's plenty likable. I thought he was a hoot in that Alexandra Pelosi documentary -- I cracked up when he took her camera away and turned it on her.

4. I think most who believe he is unlikeable are going by what they have been
fed daily by the press and they take it as gospel....
