Terry McAuliffe (spell that Hilary toadie) lands the first official broadside of POTUS '08 against Kerry's all but comatose prospects...

Two years after President Bush's re-election victory, former Democratic honcho and Clinton pal Terry McAuliffe is airing his frustrations with John Kerry's campaign in a revealing and waggish memoir.
Unlike other political autobiographies that read like pollster-approved campaign material, McAuliffe doesn't pull his punches in writing about his rise from a scrappy Irish kid from Syracuse, N.Y., to chairman of the Democratic National Committee.
Some of his harshest criticism are aimed at the 2004 campaign that he was once responsible for defending. McAuliffe calls the Kerry campaign gun-shy, incompetent and distracted from the mission of defeating a more organized Bush campaign.
McAuliffe said the Massachusetts senator's presidential campaign was so afraid of offending swing voters that it didn't defend his record and backed away from criticizing Bush at critical turns.

McAuliffe adds what I think is a new and unique perspective (lie) to the litany of rationales for Kerry's "deer in the headlights" response to SVPT revelations..."He was so afraid of offending swing voters". Huh? Wah?
Right.  |
