John Kerry, liberal moderate

Posted by Patrick

I'm liking John Kerry more and more. He's sounding better in debates, he's first out of the gate with a TV ad using footage of Bush on the aircraft carrier, and - best of all - he's owing more and more to Ted Kennedy. He's got Kennedy to thank for Boston, for stumping in Iowa, and possibly also for Bob Shrum and now Mary Beth Cahill.

Which means that a President Kerry - best known as a moderate Democrat - would owe Kennedy some nice liberal favors in return. Now all Kerry has to do is act like a liberal - and not do anything else that could piss off the party's base, like when he pulled out of the D.C. primary - and he could win the nomination.
