Kerry Positioned for '08 White House Bid (http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/n/a/2006/01/02/politics/p065810S22.DTL) - By ANDREW MIGA, Associated Press Writer

It's almost as if Sen. John Kerry never stopped running for president. He still jets across the country, raising millions of dollars and rallying Democrats. He still stalks the TV news show circuit, scolding President Bush at every turn.
His campaign Web site boasts of an online army of 3 million supporters.
The Massachusetts Democrat, defeated by Bush in 2004, insists it is far too early to talk about the 2008 race, but some analysts assume he has already positioning himself for another shot at the White House.
"Obviously, Kerry has all but said he wants another crack at the thing," said Neal Thigpen, a political science professor at South Carolina's Francis Marion University. "He's going to make a second try."
While most losing presidential nominees quickly fade into the political landscape, Kerry has worked hard at maintaining a high public profile.
"He's continuing the fight he began in 2004," said Kerry spokesman David Wade. "He wants to make it very clear he's a fighter who is going to continue to fight for his agenda."

If Longface wants sloppy seconds, he's gonna have to wait in the corner of the room, obediently, until Hillary is done screwing the country. Then, whatever's left of the Entitlement States of America, Kerry can have, with all the rest of the doorknobs. But he better wear a rubber. He could get the dirty drip if he tries to hump America's crackhole ghettos of dependency. They all share needles. Or worse, he could get AIDS: America In Denial Syndrome up in the blue cities of Pansyville. If he tries to dry boff 'merica, he could still score but he would leave a wet stain on the frunnuh his Docker's.
We'll see what the fugly jigolo does.

After I saw him on tv last week or so, I thought, "now here's a guy who might be thinking of running for president again". I mean, why not? He can only lose. He's married to a millionaire and kept well by Teresa and he's a lifetime senator in MA. :grin: Plus he's a ballerina!

Kerry cannot win at all especially after calling our troops in iraq abusers.
He would get even less of the popular vote then he did in 2004.

Positioned? My ***!
The dweeb is a terrible choice who is always FULL of plans but somehow can not tell us what they are.
The treasonous dork will only get another run of attention on why the nasal drip still has not come clean on his military service.I can see the Swiftboat Vets after him again.They exposed his SEARING lies then and will just expose some more new ones.
If the clod does get stupid and run again.He will be a dream for the bloggers out there who are ready to flay him open.They hurt him bad in 2004 and that was not long after the bloggers were getting some traction on the net.
It is a sad testament that there 3 million drooling clods following this sugar daddy.However Howard Dean had such support and he flamed out in Iowa because he was seriously flawed.A man who screamed and said patently idiotic words.
The Democrat party is in the sewer if all they can come up with are two treasonous and vile people in Kerry and Clinton.

I prefer Clinton over Kerry anyday.. At the risk of being attacked, I think Clinton would be a good choice for president. We can not attack her for her husbands mistakes.

More like a "Yawn" alert... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz... Of course Kerry thinks he still can win the Whitehouse... I've been saying all year that he was positioning himself for another run... Mainly because of his enormously big and throbbing ego...
But he already won the Dems nomination and failed miserably at taking the contest... So he is already marked as a pathetic loser... In my lifetime I have never known of any candidate who won their party's nomination and later failed to win the race, who ever was successful in even gaining the nomination on a second attempt... The Dems will reject young Mr Kerry... Everyone knows this but him...
If he had tried to win the party nomination and failed the first time, he might have a serious chance at winning that on a second try (Reagn did that after losing the nomination to Pres. Ford on his first attempt)... But having already carried the torch for the Dems and losing the general election horribly, he is tainted and, like the rotund Teddy, he will have to settle for misrepresenting the voters of Mass for the rest of his meaningless career...
Hilary most certainly is the Media Sweetheart, but that does not translate into the party nomination by a long shot (to the consternation of the media king-maker-wanna-bes)... She carries her own baggage liberally generated by her uncontrolable mouth... A sharp Republican campaign will shred her like a bad check...
I am not convinced yet that the Dems have gotten their political heads out of their asses yet so its hard to say who their nominee will be - Truthfully its way too early to predict for either party... But I recommend keeping an eye on Richards, Gov. of New Mexico... The man is slick... The man is ELECTABLE...
At the present, he is the only potential candidate for the Dems who truly scares me because he can win the hearts of the waivering middle-of-the-road undecideds... And they are usually the deciding factor in the general election...
