FALLING ON DEAF CHEERS

Reports of the reception Sen. John Kerry received in Nashville at the American Legion convention were greatly exaggerated, and perhaps gave lie to how desperately some media covering the campaign want Kerry to bounce back against the momentum-laden Republicans.

True, Kerry received a standing ovation upon his entrance and exit from the stage, but both were started by Kerry campaign staffers seeded throughout the hall. Kerry's biggest applause lines occurred when he introduced former Sen. John Glenn. After that, virtually all of Kerry's applause lines were started by Kerry staff that mostly lined the right side of the convention hall.

"He kept looking over that way, as though he were looking for reassurance from someone," says a reporter on the ground at the speech. "He was clearly wary of coming here, given the reception the President got yesterday."

Kerry generally received polite applause, but ended up rolling through at least seven applause lines to avoid the uncomfortable lack of enthusiasm some of his early lines garnered.
