The second thought is...Hallelujah!!! We won't have to listen to one of the most boring orators drone on and on about his heroics in Vietnam and then compare the war on terrorism in Iraq to the war in Vietnam...because, you know, he was there, in Vietnam, and he was a hero. Did I mention that John Kerry was in Vietnam? (And before anyone complains, I honor anyone who went to Vietnam and acted honorably.)
The third thought is...John Kerry will not be President of the U.S. WOHOOO!!!
The fourth thought...I wonder why he isn't running? Surely he hasn't suddenly just realized that America doesn't want him as her Commander in Chief. So what is he up to? Hmmm...this can't be good....
The fifth thought....Aha! Here's the real deal. John Kerry believes he has a better chance of getting what he wants, (read: he believes he has more power) by remaining in his Senate seat, at least now that the Democrats have the majority. His plans, in a statement to his Massachusetts supporters, " 'Thanks to you, we have a new Democratic Congress that is fighting to stop the administration's disastrous course in Iraq, thanks to you we can be a Congress that addresses issues like climate change and health care, and thanks to you, change is coming to Washington.' "
So there you have it, folks. Straight from the horse's mouth, Sen. Kerry has just laid out the Democrats' plan for the forseeable future. First and foremost, get out of Iraq no matter what the cost all the while blaming President Bush for the ensuing disaster. Second, tackle the REALLY important issues facing the U.S....like global warming (or its new name "climate change". That way, if the trend changes, they can, still blame Big Industry and of course, George Bush). Third, turn America's healthcare system into a socialized medicine situation.

Because that's working so well for Castro in Cuba....

I'm with you on the WooHoo! But at the same time, he sure was entertaining. A gaffe a minute, that Kerry! (Did you know he was in Vietnam?)
My guess is that with Obama and Hillary both in the running and sucking all the oxygen from Kerry (except when he puts his big fat foot in his droning mouth), he saw the handwriting on the wall and decided not to run. And that speaks well for him, because I didn't know die-hard politicians knew how to read handwriting on the wall. Kucinich doesn't--but he's another story.
