Senator John Kerry on The Daily Show NOW!

[Up2Late]

Talking about a new book.

[MADem]

1. He and Theresa were on Imus the other day talking about it, too.

It's about "everyday environmentalists"--not famous people, just regular folks who make a difference.

[Up2Late]

2. Jon wants a picture or two in the book!

Good, fun interview! :D

[karynnj]

10. The cover photo is gorgeous (n/t)

[blm]

24. Best line when Stewart whined about no pics - It was written for Colbert, not you.

Heh - even Stewart laughed at that one.

[monarch]

3. Kerry was terrific! n/t

[Bitwit1234]

4. Stewart took a backhanded swipe at people like Katie Courtic

He didn't mention any names but he made it clear they were jerks.

5. Interesting, at the end of the interview, Kerry seemed a bit too

eager to get out of there. Remember the skit Jon did about Bill Gates getting up, shaking hands and he was out of there? They didn't show a long shot of Kerry, but I sure saw him stand up, shake hands and begine a quick exit. I guess he didn't feel too comfortable.

[karynnj]

6. He looked very comfortable throughout the whole thing

I think he just naturally walks fast. They did shake hands and it was clear it was over - then he left.

[mloutre]

7. Actually, he looked very comfortable being there.

He and Stewart both seemed like they were having a blast just bantering back and forth. I think there's some mutual respect & admiration there.

[Island Blue]

8. He seemed pretty damn comfortable to me.

The audience loved him - they went wild when he was introduced. He and Jon were great together. Give the guy a break.

9. Baloney

He also stood up and went over to Jon and it broke away with him still standing there. You sound like MSM making something out of nothing.

[napi21]

11. I sound like the MSM? OH MAN! Give me the bucks those guys get

and I'll admit to anything!

I'm not trying to pick on Kerry, I always pay attention to the little stuff, and I've seen many other guests linger aroung and BS with Jon, Kerry didn't do that, and it just struck me different, that's all.

12. He seemed comfortable during the interview

but you're right about him getting up too soon. A lot of people do this, though. You're supposed to stay seated until the show goes out to commercial, then get up and leave, but often people just get up and leave when the interview is over (like Bill Gates did - except Bill Gates practically ran off the set). It doesn't necessarily mean that he felt uncomfortable, though - he just moved a few seconds too soon.

[napi21]

13. Thanks. I was starting to question my eyes a bit. n/t

[wisteria]

14. He seemed fine and lingered a bit in the segment I witnessed.n/t

[Mass]

18. Or he was expected somewhere else?

You may be right that he got up a little bit too early, but many people do that. This does not mean they feel uncomfortable.

[ginnyinWI]

21. first he had an extended ovation from the audience

Then he had a good, friendly interview with Stewart who obviously likes him. Why woudn't he feel comfortable? He's a kind of active hyper type who is always in motion. Wish I was, then I'd be as thin as he is.

[wisteria]

15. It was a great interview and Senator Kerry was relaxed and funny

The crowd obviously was excited to see him and the whole experience was uplifting.

[ElizabethDC]

16. 'twas a fantastic interview

I really enjoyed it. You're right, JK was very relaxed and funny.

[Up2Late]

17. Replay starting kick

:kick:

[Tellurian]

19. Yes, I read the story about the River Keeper..

fascinating!

I wish he would put out flyers.. err...brochures, at all the Rest Areas on Rt 95 and Rt295.
Great Stories! Loved it!

[orleans]

20. (glad i missed it) n/t

[politicasista]

22. K&R

I saw it at midnight and it was a cool interview. Kerry looked and sounded very relaxed. Stewart sounded informed about the book. And the audience sounded excited also. :kick:

[NewYorkerfromMass]

23. Thanks for the comments all. nt

[Up2Late]

25. Hey! Who is this? Are you RFK Jr.?

Or even Senator Kerry? :hi:

I always wondered if we had any "famous people" lurking around here.

[NewYorkerfromMass]

26. Ha!

I've been here a while but I'm not any of those guys.
