Something I have observed and it's not surprising. Every time time the senator makes a TV (i.e. like on MSNBC Tuesday) or radio appearance on Obama's behalf, the "I gave him money to his campaign and wonder what he did with it" and "I will never forgive him for conceding and not standing up in Ohio" talk comes out of the woodwork.
IMO, I think it's a "How dare you slam a two-term Democratic president and a former First Lady" attitude, Anti-Obama, (still Anti-Kerry) and overall bitterness more than anything else. I haven't posted in those type threads, ignoring them for the most part (if not all GDP), but it's very baffling. Almost like everything else the senator does is always overshadowed by 04 and the concession. Have noticed that there have been counter arguments from many here :), but it's baffling (yes, that word again) that crickets appear sometimes (not all the time).
Very baffling indeed.
edit for word

2. I just realize that it means they can not counter JK's logic or position on whatever was in the |

OP. It is desperation. I still counter things either because I lack the disciple not to or because I think they need at least one clear comment countering it - each time.
The fact is Kerry is calling HRC on her tactics. They are very wrong, they hurt the party and someone with gravitas needs to do it. I'm sure it's not enjoyable. Looking at the names I recognize, the ones hitting Kerry are HRC loyalists. What is intereting is that they attacked Kerry - but very few if any questioned what he said. That means they can't refute it.

primarily for politicalsista who seems to genuinely hurt by all the negativity. Over-protectiveness for the young ones, I guess. You are young sista, am I right :hi:?

I was mostly agreeing - I wish I didn't write a few that I wrote - in anger.
I also was trying to put it in perspective - it hurts seeing these same idiotic attacks - but they come because they can't counter what he said,, he was extremely classy and they know it. (If I saw Obama people saying - oh, I wish he wouldn't have ....., then I'd be concerned.
