Reply #2: The problem, politicasista, is sometimes, you bring the negative stuff in here. [View All]

Like saying "people have lost respect for Kerry". You know, all I have to do is turn on cable tv to hear that crap (just heard it again on KO last night), and frankly, I don't want to hear it in here. When I heard Jonathon Alter disrespect Kerry last night (he said the Clinton's power is ebbing, like air coming out of a ballon ... much like Kerry after he lost), well, it makes my heart sink. Even if it were true for a time, it is not true now. But Alter did not mention increased power post-2006. So, why don't you keep things positive here? Because that is what this space was created for: we can talk about how much we respect Senator Kerry, to hell with the rest of the world. And, really, if Obama becomes president, you can bet your life more respect WILL be accorded Sen. Kerry in the Senate and the media. And, if Obama fails .... Kerry will still be in a Democratic majority in the Senate with quite a lot of seniority and respect. He has EARNED that respect by working hard on the issues he cares about.

I know you are only repeating what other people say, but I really think you should edit that stuff from your posts here. They're kind of a downer. You know I love ya, politicasista, so I hope you don't mind my mild chastisement here.
