John Kerry now has a voice that gets continuing coverage

I've noticed post Nov. 2 that when Kerry says something about the current congress or Bush admin, he gets headlines.

John Kerry was a big unknown to most of the electorate. I think he can only become better known and the comfort factor with the masses can only increase. I personally do not understand why people need that, but since they do I see that as a positive.

Just throwing that out there.

3. He seems cool

Why do the bad guy jerks always win? I am sorry but I fault the DNC, DLC for this. He would have made a solid "Health care president.":argh:

4. I actually think it is better that 3rd parties press the fraud issue

I think it is better since the motivation is perceived differently

I do think the fraud issue in Ohio should be framed as a civil rights violation akin to Missisipi of the 1950s.

11. He has to propose legislation, not just talk about it

I don't care if he knows he is going to lose, he must propose it so that next time around he can say "Here it is, legislation that would make every person's vote count and they rejected it."

6. Dems need Kerry to propose legislation, then let it get beat down

Just keep introducing health care legislation, women's rights and other key Democratic issue legislation, bill after bill after bill and let the wingnuts knock it down time after time after time.

9. and in 2008 Kerry will not be someone the masses say they

know nothing about. He'll be like an old friend. Someone they know truly cares about the little guy.

10. They never do that in Congress but they should

I learned that when I was one of only two Democrats on our town council. Every meeting I would come in and propose some new local legislation to help the community and they would vote it down. Every week we had a new press release talking about it. We made a list of all the things they voted against and the next year we won both seats from the Repugs and took control.

It is not that hard to do. All it takes is a little time and energy.

12. I have come to really respect JK; and toward the end of the election,

I can almost say that I loved him! Something I've never really felt for a candidate for President, and even Presidents in office, unless historically viewed. Kerry SHOULD get headlines; He WON the presidency.
