Random Thoughts on the Democratic Candidates
Tags:
If John Kerry becomes president, will Republicans whine that "It's all about the keeeeetchup!"?
If John Edwards wins the nomination, what will political cartoonists do? How do you do a caricature of a guy that bland-looking?
Why did Gephardt drop out without endorsing anyone? Is he hoping not to jump the gun, like Carol Moseley Braun did with her early nod to Dean?
I hope Sharpton and Kucinich stick it out to the end. Much as I disagree with their stands on the issues, I like their bombast and earnestness, respectively.
Does Kerry stand a ghost chance in hell down south?
Heh, if Kerry is president, it will be about something... He's worth something like $625 million, making him the richest congressman.
And if we look more at his wife, it's about Jewry, in addition to keeeetchup:
"Her human rights work as an original member and later co-chair of the Congressional Wives for Soviet Jewry drew more than a dozen awards from the Jewish community including the Israel Service Award and the Community Service Human Rights Award from the American Jewish Committee."

Next thing you know, she's married to *another* senator. There are only ever 100 senators at any time. How many of them are unmarried at any given moment? One is more likely to wed a model, actor/actress, or musician than a senator!
Actually Senator Heinz died in 1992, and Kerry married the widowed Mrs. Heinz in 1995. So it's not exactly "next thing you know." :)
