Reply #12: Kerry has a LONG way to go before he sounds like Miller.

Look, anger is not a bad thing, okay? Really, it isn't. Kerry has every right to be angry. There are different ways of *expressing* one's anger, true. Kerry, strong as his words were last night, still sounds eminently sane. And he was able to come out of that and smile and be easygoing with the crowd afterward. Miller looked like an Undead Preacher of Doom. He had springs coming out of his head. It's not the anger that's the problem; it's the whole "not being in touch with reality" bit that's making people back the hell away from him.

by the way: Miller seemed honestly surprised when Blitzer suggested that he was angry. I doubt Kerry would deny being angry if someone had asked him last night. Miller is scary because he's unconscious. That's what "crazy" means.
