We all supported Sen Kerry when he ran in 04'. AK made a valid point of some of his supporters claiming ownership of opinions regarding Sen Kerry. As I said in a previous lengthy post regarding this issue. They defended him to the point of disgust-- ad nauseum. They alienated more people than generating Kerry support. A good analogy is, having a housekeeper that answers the doorbell when guests arrive. She is rude and contentious to them the minute she opens the door. How many guests would feel welcome in that house. How long would they want to stay in your company. First impressions are important and for continued open dialog with potential supporters is key to growing a huge following. There was never a followup on that aspect or a thought of entertaining a change of strategy. Fortuitously, Sen Kerry ended the torment by opting not to run.
And thanks for the above post putting that poster in her place. This is your thread, therefore, your house.
