It's not interesting because it's not true. I have plenty of issues with Brown, this thread just doesn't happen to be about him, or related to the issues I have with him. As far as not appreciating my own Senior Senator, where did I say something negative about him in this thread, other than then suggestion that he's not buddy-buddy with the "common man" on a daily basis? I like Kerry for many reasons, but I think you're going to have a hard time finding anyone other than the most dedicated kool-aid drinkers who think that one of Kerry's strengths is his "common touch"
