Crucial advice for John Kerry

Listen, big guy, you’ve got to stop listening to advice!*

And all you self-appointed Kerry advisors . . . go read Digby today and get your game face on.

I know it’s frustrating.  Some of us desperately wish that our fair country was also a sane country (or a simulacrum of one!  I’m working on it!), like one of those many industrialized nations in which support for Kerry over Bush runs about 85-15 . . . and in which the spectacle of the Republican convention would’ve dropped Bush’s support from 15 percent to 6.  Or we desperately wish that we could have Jon Stewart step in to debate Bush, just once (partly to see W. react to Jon’s summary of his campaign:  “he drove us into a wall-- but hey, he didn’t blink!").  Or we wish that the other party wasn’t controlled by a consortium of mullahs, kleptocrats, and sociopaths who lie with every utterance and sometimes even with random grunts, gestures, and snores. Well, it would be nice.  Maybe next time!  But right now we have to pull the good old U. S. of A. back from the precipice, even if almost half our fellow citizens will despise us for it.  So don’t waste time in kvetching-- organize.

* Except for unsolicited advice from other hockey players, of course.
