How To Kill Your Presidential Future
Every now and then, John Kerry looks like he might give it another shot in 2008. But I think he blew it yesterday. Michelle Malkin is looking at his call for a filibuster of the Alito nomination.
Aside from the fact that the nation fairly clearly wants Alito on the court, Kerry blows his political future by siding with the New York Times as if anyone cares anymore. Then there is the fact that this move solidifies his hold on the Moveon/DailyKos branch of the Dem party, and we all saw how well that served Howard Dean last time.
I'm tempted to award Kerry a "Stuck on Stupid" for this one, but I think that would give him too much credit.
