John Kerry today tried to "re-launch" his sinking presidential campaign with the unveiling of a plan for what hed do with his first 100 days in the White House.
But then, in an attempted indirect slap at Howard Dean, he said to New Hampshire voters, "Dont just send them a message; send them a president."
This was Jimmy Carters slogan back in 1976, which he used as a way of attacking and siphoning votes from George Wallace. Cant Kerry come up with his own slogans? Borrowing from Jimmy Carter isnt a very good sign.
Wasnt Kerry in the Vietnam war or something? I seem to remember reading that somewhere. If his campaign people were smart,, theyd play up that angle.
Play up that angle? Heck, they mention it every chance they get. In fact, Kerrys time in Vietnam was the cover story of the last issue of the Atlantic. The problem is that its not doing him a bit of good among Democratic regulars.
