Carpetbagger had a post about Kerry not running. A lot of bad comments, but then there was this one:

It doesn’t seem that most saw the actual announcement.
What Kerry actually said is a bit more important than the SPIN.
He said that he could not run BECAUSE IN A CAMPAIGN IT IS NECESSARY TO SCULPT THE MESSAGE, while it is clear to him that his JOB is to work his ass off in the Senate doing everything possible to stop the Bush escalation, so that there can be a president again who follows the Constitution, instead of what we have.
It was courageous, it was real leadership, it was very moving.
So naturally the Muffled Media didn’t cover it, and the blogs are BLOWING IT, once again, spreading bullshit for their enemies.
Our most qualified (after Gore) candidate just sacrificed his candidacy this time around for the FIGHT.
And you throw tomatoes and talk about how embarassed you were — neverming that Bush stole the count from the election that Kerry WON.
Really, and even then you feel good about yourselves! What a great bunch of boobs you are, many of you, denigrating a man of such qualities and such a HUGE record of service.

Second comment from him:
“As for Kerry, I’m inclined to agree with Barry #24. He had a great shot and he blew it, largely IMO because he failed to fight hard enough for his convictions”
You are deeply deluded. You have bought the spurious Leftist line (so like the rightwing line it’s a marvel) all the way.
• Kerry WON the election. The evidence of that is overwhelming.
• Kerry SIGNED ONTO the Ohio vote challenge, when he returned from Iraq.
But unlike the heroes in the blog chatrooms, he realized that if the Ohio SecState was Bush’s campaign chair, then there was no way we would get a recount, because this is a COUP.
Now we are making headway against that coup and that vote-fraud, but rather than APPLAUD KERRY FOR OUTING THE PNAC AND THE PERMANENT AIRBASES IN IRAQ DURING THE FIRST DEBATE OF 2004 the leftists and the bleating blogs ignored the courage, ignored the vote-fraud, and ignored the man’s character, training, intellect, and qualifications — which make the current occupant look like the janitor’s drooling son.
Kerry is going to make an EXCELLENT president in 2012. He has my vote, and my support in this fight. The SAME people here who bemoan the Dems for being weak don’t applaud the strengths, because it’s so much easier to feel superior if you ignore the evidence that there are better people serving YOU than you deserve.
