In Arkansas, Kerry Finds Key Word to Be 'Clinton'

If there was a question about whether John F. Kerry has any qualms about invoking Bill Clinton in his quest for the White House, they were resolved this week after his visit to the former president's home state.

The presumptive Democratic nominee ostensibly stopped here as part of a four-day effort to promote his healthcare plan. But it seemed more like a pilgrimage.

By the time he finished his 20-hour swing through the city Thursday, the Massachusetts senator had dropped Clinton's name at least a dozen times. He had tried to imitate Clinton's drawl. And he had visited Doe's Eat Place, a smoky barbecue joint that was a renowned hangout for Clinton and his staff.

The senator's embrace of the two-term president and former Arkansas governor, who still inspires devotion among some voters and is disdained by others, contrasts sharply with the posture struck by the last Democratic presidential nominee.

Over on 3rd or 4th st., black and white checkered floor, steak dinners sold by the pound and fries served by the platter which is the size of a garbage can lid?

And, as far as I know, everybody's welcome at Doe's. I hear they even serve Republicans--on a much smaller platter.

Thats what I miss the most..

the good times-

This administration thrives on gloom and doom highlighted by negative government and secrecy coupled with corrupt motives destined to enrich no one but themselves.

This administration thrives on putting fear in all of us. They think that fear will get Bush elected. That's way he is playing the homeland security card.

We all need to come from the shadows and stop being afraid. If we get killed in a terrorist attack we get killed. We need to guard against it but walk on the sunny side of the street.

Right you are.

Kerry needs to smile more. It looks good on him. Even though these are serious times.

every day between now and November 2. Arkansas is a must win for George Jr. Clinton can, I'm confident, deliver the state to Kerry.

Let's get busy Bill!

Even if you are against Kerry taking any risks, it's hard to make any argument against the fact that the Clinton years were better than the Bush years. After three years of Bush, a presidential blowjob scandal seems pretty silly.

Most Americans would love to go back to the glory of the Clinton years!
