Kerry Forgoes the South



Kerry may be on a roll in New Hampshire, but he's wise to his chances down south. He told a Dartmouth College audience that "Everybody always makes the mistake of looking South. Al Gore proved he could have been president of the United States without winning one Southern state, including his own." Actually, he new Electoral College map actually give southern states even more clout, but Kerry is fundamentally correct. It is possible for a Democrat to lose every southern state and become president. Just ask President..uh...Bush.. OK, so no Democrat has ever done it, but since Kerry has no hope of carrying any southern state not starting with the letter "F," he is very smart to make this case to primary voters.



While we're on the subject, it looks like Kerry has had a few collagen injections lately, too. Have you noticed?
