SEATTLE, Washington (AP) -- Sen. John F. Kerry told state legislators Friday the Democratic Party doesn't need to undergo an extreme makeover, saying "the last thing America needs is a second Republican Party."

Well, now that's rich. I could understand it if, oh, Dean said this. But
Kerry?? Now, I know, we dems/libs/progressives are supposed to stick together. The repugs wouldn't speak against one of their own in public no matter how much he was despised w/in the party. Guess that's the difference between us and them. We are allowed to have opinions. They aren't. They are lock-step, goose-step. Us? Holding bake sales so that our children, fighting their war in Iraq, can have the armor that Rumsfeld won't give them.
So, dear Senator John Kerry. I hope you will not be running for president in 2008. I cannot vote for a man that voted FOR the war in Iraq and FOR the PATRIOT ACT. I know, I know. A long time ago. But it's still effecting us today. You've been pretty solidly Dem since you got your
ass handed to you in 2004. Keep doing what you are doing and perhaps the good people of Massachusettes will send you back for another term as Senator. But not president. We already have a second republican party, and it's with no small thanks to people like you, who for four years, let Bush do whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted. This country is screwed.
