3. A caller just asked, "is this Johnkerry.com"?
Imus replied, "at this time it is." Earlier this morning when he first said he could vote for Kerry, Imus' sidekick said he thought Imus was solidly behind Bush. Imus replied that that was before Iowa. His sidekick gave him some crap about not being behind Kerry when he was down.

5. The caller or the sidekick?

I'm clueless. I listened to his show once during the recount, threw up, and haven't tuned back in until today.

...Thanks for the clarification.

7. I think Bush lying about WMD's in Iraq is eating at Imus and others

That is my guess. No one likes being played a fool.

8. Imus has always liked Kerry...
He prefers him too. Of course he does, he's a New England Liberal, and they are dreaming of Dukakis....

And it doesn't matter how good your record is, look at Dukakis...
They are very good at spinning the phrase "New England Liberal".

"Dukakis graduated from Brookline High School (1951), Swarthmore College (1955), and Harvard Law School (1960). He served for two years in the United States Army, sixteen months of which he spent with the Support Group to the UN Delegation to the Military Armistice commission in Munsan, Korea.

Dukakis began his political career as an elected Town Meeting Member in the town of Brookline. He was elected chairman of his town's Democratic organization in 1960 and won a seat in the Massachusetts legislature in 1962. He served four terms as a legislator, winning re-election by an increasing margin each time he ran.

In 1970 he was the Massachusetts Democratic Party's nominee for Lieutenant- Governor and the running mate of Boston Mayor Kevin White in that year's gubernatorial race which they lost to Republicans Frank Sargeant and Donald Dwight. Dukakis won his party's nomination for governor in 1974 and beat Sargeant decisively in November of that year.

He inherited a record deficit and record high unemployment and is generally credited with digging Massachusetts out of one of its worst financial and economic crises in history. But the effort took its toll, and Dukakis was defeated in the Democratic Primary in 1978 by Edward King.

Dukakis came back to defeat King in 1982 and was re-elected to an unprecedented third four-year term in 1986 by one of the largest margins in history. In 1986 his colleagues in the National Governors Association voted him the most effective governor in the Nation.

Dukakis won the Democratic nomination for the Presidency in 1988 but was defeated by George Bush. Soon thereafter, he announced that he would not be a candidate for re-election as governor and served his final two years as governor at a time of increasing financial and economic distress in Massachusetts and the Northeast."
