42. LOL! Comparing the lowlife Romney to a man

of real integrity like Senator Kerry.

The media said the same things you are saying too. He was this establishment candidate that nobody liked and couldn't connect. If the MSM lies about Obama, it's false, but if they lie about Kerry or any Dem/Liberal we don't like, it must be true!

If people were weren't voting for Kerry, but against Bush, what motivated all the crowds in 04 to show up for someone that was so boring and stiff?

Oh, that's right, they were there to see Edwards, Springsteen, Bill Clinton, Obama and other celebrites and not the candidate himself.

Interesting not one person has been able to answer that question.

Thankfully, our President and Vice President have shown ten times more respect for the Senator than most here ever will.

And Obama is doing just fine and his nothing like Bush, thank you very much.
