Has John Kerry provided the October Surprise that will turn the midterm election?
Did his insulting comments doom the democratic hopes once again and is this the begining of the end of the party?

I can't believe he let some of his true colors break out before the mid terms... I think he has just sealed his fate in history as a traitorous sorry excuse for a Senator.
I hope many many people heard him betray and insult our troops the way he did. I'm sorry but I seen it and it wasn't meant to be a bad joke. He has no funny bone and couldn't tell a joke to save his life. He found that out in 04. This is just more proof of how the liberals absolutely hate our military and all they stand for.
So yes this is THE October surprise... a liberal tipping his hand before the bet has been called.

Kerry's comments were badly phrased. I knew that he was saying something bad about Bush, not about the troops, when I first heard it. But I do understand how it can be taken offensively, though I did not. He held a press conference to clarify today, but from what I did see on the news, he did not say that he apologized to anyone that he might have inadvertently offended, and I think that hurts.
But Kerry isn't running, and at this point in the game, most people have already made up their minds. I just don't see it having that big of an impact. People are far more pissed off about the war than they are about an idiot from MA saying something stupid.

John Kerry has provided nothing of substance to the Right...To swing this election in the Neocons Kerry would have to go rape the Duke Lacrosse team and their strippers, Molest all the male pages in the white house, get caught masturbating with a picture of the Pope in his hand, Be found out to have started all those wildfires that claimed 4 lives this weekend, Invade an occupy Connecticut this upcoming weekend and murder 100,000 citizens with his poor invasion planning...And then stand before America and say with a straight face...Brownie I'm Doing a heckuva' job.....Even after all that....The righties would still lose...... Sorry bout DAT

John Kerry's comments insulted me because I have a friend who is in the Army National Guard. He is from a smart and wealthy family, and plans on going to college this spring.
It has caused me to wonder if these comments portray all Democrats or just elitist democrats from Massachusetts.

Kerry is an idiot. Plain and simple.
He may have just cost the democrats the Senate, and possibly the House, if and when his comments spread throughout America.

This time even Senator Mc Cain is calling for an apology but Mr Kerry said he nevers does that even when he has been shown that what he said was wrong!

No, Kerry called Bush stupid
Bush is so stupid that he doesn't understand the Kerry called him stupid and is demanding Kerry appolgize to the troops for calling Bush "stupid".
In truth Kerry missed a couple words. He could have avoided this.

He is a loser from a to z. I don't know that it was enough to sway enough voters,but every little bit helps.
