Excellent Boston Globe ARticle 1/21/05
A very fair, sympathetic and well written article on Sen. Kerry's day yesterday. From the Boston Globe. (You could knock me over with a feather. They've gone soft on him.)

1. I'm so proud
but not at all surprised. If one word could describe him yesterday, it would be class. That word always fits him, but he makes me continually proud to be among his supporters. What an excellent way to start the day. Thank you.

My %$$#@$% car wouldn't start this morning, and I'm waiting. And waiting. And waiting for AAA.

Thanks for amusing me while I wait. And wait....

6. Yeah, he did fine
I think he is mostly over it. Time to move on and consider what you can do to restore America to sanity. That grilling of Condi this week was sweet. I am kind of surprised that it didn't get more play at DU. Kerry stayed way later than everyone else, except Lugar and Hagle on Tuesday and really lit into Condi. 'twas a beautiful thing.

Did anybody see the Tuesday night hearing? Wow! That was Kerry the Prosecutor in full bloom. Riveting testimony (well, riveting to us wonks.)


His annoucement of how he was going to vote against her nomination was very eloquent. Gave me the warm and fuzzies.

And now both of my Senators are going to vote against Condi. Sweet!

8. yeah, the fact he is still Senator keeps him busy
if he had no other job then it might have been worse since he would spend so much time just thinking about the loss and what could have been etc. and wondering what he should do now.

but the fact he still has a job to do means even if he wanted to focus on the loss more he wouldn't have much time since there are so many issues and things he needs to focus on as Senator. and the things he talked about doing for the people during the campaign are things he can still work on as Senator.

7. Nice article, aa'ite
"Representative Steny H. Hoyer, Democrat of Maryland and the House minority whip, said Bush must demonstrate by his actions that he is ready to be bipartisan. ''That is a challenge that he failed to meet in his first term, and I am hopeful that he will see the wisdom of embracing it in the second," Hoyer said."
Hats off to Hoyer, a true Marylander!
