Kerry's Minnesota visit may have wider purpose
http://www.startribune.com/stories/587/5362878.html

When New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton attended the DFL Humphrey Day Dinner in Minneapolis less than two weeks ago, Dayton, D-Minn., told the crowd he hoped he was introducing "the next great president of the United States of America."

Two days later on the floor of the U.S. Senate, Dayton said Kerry approached him "with daggers in his eyes and said, 'What are you doing endorsing my 2008 presidential opponent?'... He was very serious."

Kerry's office disputes Dayton's account. David Wade, his spokesman, said "there was nothing but joshing on the Senate floor" between Dayton and Kerry, who have been friends for 35 years. ...

"I think he'd be the first to admit that he still is looking at the potential for running for the White House again in 2008, so he remains active in Washington, Massachusetts and around the country," Erlandson said.

2. Time will tell..
whether this is a joke or not. IMO, what surprises would the GOP have for Kerry, in a "sleazy" prez. campaign? They pulled out all the stops the first time. After this disastrous second term and the "flood lights" on the GOP MISrepresentation of their own party, I think they would have NO CHANCE in winning over Kerry if he ran again. Just my opinion.

3. Hey Minnesota!!!
You ain't that fuckin' important. Kerry was talking about Kids First in Austin last week. How come they didn't announce he was starting his 2008 campaign in Texas?? It would have been stupid, that's why. So's this. Somebody's desperate for a story.
