Has anyone suggested Kerry for Sen. Minority Leader?
I think it would be the perfect role for him right now... if he truly means to carry on the fight.

4. i don't think Kerry wants the job

as it would limit his opportunities for what he wants to do in the future. being jr senator allowed him to be more free to do things like investigations. i think he wants to remain in that kind of position. minority leader job would mean he would have to be more focused on the entire senate and take into account how things are for senators from various states.

2. He's not centrist enough
As you know, the Democratic party is shuffling to the right these days...

6. I got through the "M's" over at senate.gov
I was emailing the Dem Senators to suggest it.

I don't know if Kerry wants it either, but it made me feel good to be doing something.

They don't vote on it until Nov. 16th so there is still time if you want to put your two cents in like me.
