Reply #104: Best course for public credibility of Democratic Party

[FreeStateDemocrat]

You have to pick your fights intelligently. If Kerry had absolute proof of malfeasance as a defeated candidate he only recourse would have been the court system first and not on the floor of the US Senate. Both Kerry and the Democratic Party would have been humiliated by not first pursuing due legal process. The case could not be legally made with any reasonable assurance of at least winning in the court of public opinion. There is a point when you need to cut your loses and stop the bleeding. The significant and inspiring protest by Barbara Boxer both illuminated and documented the fact that we know what they are doing but we can’t legally prove it, yet! I might add that I personally do not support giving Kerry another shot in 2008 a marginally smarter (mishandled Iraq and Swifties) campaign this time would have beaten the very vulnerable *idiot*.
