Kerry as Attorney General?

[woodsprite]

He knows how these a$$holes role AND he knows
everything that's at stake. I would think he'd be serious
in going after some of this stuff, especially considering
his history.

Don't know why, but I woke up thinking that this morning.

1. And put another Senate seat in play? No, thanks. n/t

[Glitterati]

2. No!

Did you miss the 2004 campaign for President?

No!

[H2O Man]

3. Kerry will be

Secretary of State.

[PragmaticLiberal]

13. You're right. Kerry's the guy.

He's wanted the position for years and this time he'll get it.

[TheCowsCameHome]

4. No.

He's getting old, he should just retire and enjoy the rest of his life.

The bad thing would be having his seat in play, which Scott Brown would probably win.

[ProSense]

5. What?

"He's getting old..."

Mitt Romney is 65. Hillary Clinton is 64. There are some people who want her to run for President in 2016.

[TheCowsCameHome]

6. He'll be 69 soon.

He's got the world by the tail. Why not enjoy life after his current term expires?

Life is short.

7. So, Kennedy shoud have retired in 2006, I imagine or even before.

Not to speak of Byrd, Levin, Akaka, Innouye.

[Le Taz Hot]

10. . . . Thurmond, Helms . . .

And no I'm not comparing Kerry to these two but sometimes the elderly DO stay in positions they REALLY need to retire from -- like 20 years before they actually did (or just died in office).

[Mass]

11. I dont disagree. However, I object to the fact I do not remember this particular poster

calling for Kennedy to step down in 2006, or Byrd. I also do not remember him calling for Harkin to step down, or Sanders. So, why Kerry?

[TheCowsCameHome]

12. Am I the "this particular poster" you are refering to?

I am simply saying why would someone with Kerry's wealth and position in life want to stay in office until he or she dies? I wish Ted could have had a little time to kick back with Vicki and stroll the beaches of Hyannisport or sail his Mya.

Sorry friend, I've seen too many friends and relatives work until they literally dropped dead on the job without collecting a nickel of retirement money.

Life to too short. Get out and enjoy some of it while you still can.

Leave the "work until you die" baloney for republicans.

[Mass]

8. I like Kerry, but it seems unlikely.

Deval Patrick is a more likely possibility, if we talk about somebody from MA.

[hootinholler]

9. Is Holder out?

There are others who would do better and we need that senate seat.
