Today's Trivial Wingnut Gossip re: KERRY, DEAN
******QUOTE*****

http://www.nypost.com/gossip/pagesix_u.htm

PANDER ALERT

DEMOCRATIC front-runner Howard Dean's bid to court rural Iowans by painting himself as one of them at a forum this week didn't go over too well with Iowa's most influential political reporter, David Yepsen. In a column, Yepsen zinged Dean as the "ultimate panderer" and explained, "The former Vermont governor once referred to 'us rural people' during his remarks." Yepsen had right to be irked. Dean's idea of "rural" apparently means being born to a wealthy family in New York City, attending an exclusive prep school in Rhode Island and studying at Yale. ....

WE HEAR . . . WE HEAR . . .
WE HEAR . . .

THAT Morgan Fairchild, who dated Sen. John Kerry before he married Teresa Heinz, has now donated money to three of his rivals for the Democratic presidential nomination . . . ....

3. Then where is this guy's outrage at Chimpy calling himself a Texan?
Wasn't Junior born and schooled in New England?

In this day and age, very few people live their entire lives in the same state, let alone the same town.

Dean has lived in Vermont more than long enough to claim citizenship to a small, rural state.

5. Horsecrap!
He can't help the family he was born into! He became a doctor and moved to one of the most rural states in the east! Sounds like one of Gep's minions to me.
