Reply #101: I agree with what you said.

Welcome to DU -- the posting part anyway.

What we are showing here is how fickle we are. We want things to be immediate -- instant gratification and if we don't get what we want we all turn into Veruka Salt and DEMAND that we get it NOW.

Kerry has never been a dismal failure in his life. He could be a dismal disappointment to you, but we picked him and we must stay behind him if we ever hope to have any candidate worth their salt to run again. Who would with a bunch of ingrates like us backing them? As I said last night, you either support the MAN or you don't. Kicking him while he is down is not so attractive.

I don't pretend to know what he is doing or what he isn't doing because frankly, right now, I don't care. I am not privy to it and can't make his choices for him. I am sure all his choices wouldn't be exactly what I would have done, but then I was not the candidate of choice for this party, was I?

I do know that I believe in him and all that he stood for -- a nation that could once again hold it's head up and HELP each other rather than always trying to "one up" each other.

Kerry is a good man who has devoted his entire adult life in service to his country. He could easily "drop out" and vacation for the rest of his life, and could have before considering running for this office in this party. But he didn't. He "suffered the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" for all of us.

Now, because he is not doing what you think he should you are ready to throw his bones to the dogs.

We are a sorry bunch, aren't we?
