John Kerry Endorses Barack Obama
Today John Kerry made his most news worthy speech since the “don’t taze me bro” incident at the University of Florida. In Charleston, SC Kerry appeared beside Barack Obama to give him his Heinz seal of presidential approval.
This is a big slap in the face to John Edwards, who’s only chance at getting the democratic nomination rests with either Obama or Hillary Clinton getting struck by lightning in the next few weeks. If that happens, Edwards can probably delay his concession speech until perhaps end of February.
In other news, Bill Richardson did the smart thing and dropped out of the race. However, Richardson lacked the class to endorse someone other than himself. All the democratic candidates called him seeking an endorsement but Bill said that’s ok, I’m just going to talk on TV a bit more and then go home and eat some ice cream and doughnuts.

Honestly, with Kerry’s record Oprah’s endorsement is worth more and for me that doesn’t mean much at all, do the democrats even want to win this one?!?

And-Yeah The Oprah’s endorsement was bigger. She has a loyal enough following that she could probably start her own genocide if she wanted to ;)

I think John Kerry is less than an honorable/trustworthy man. He is a lot like Hillary Clinton, and can wear any face, and agree to any position.
I like a trustworthy President who is reliable. This is a very strange year, but I do believe Mr. Huckabee is the best choice.

You are a joke Betty. John Kerry SERVED IN VIETNAM! George Bush hung out in Alabama in the reserves and did cocaine and got drunk during his service. And you can tell he’s had a whole lotta brain damage, dude can barely put a sentence together let alone run a country properly.
Yes, very reliable prez we have! Anyways, bye bye Betty. Your spamming garbage is longer welcome here.
