Mr. Snob strikes again!
John Kerry: Democrats’ woes stem from uninformed voters - BostonHerald.com
There always has to be some liberal that tries to spin, when a liberal sticks his big arrogant foot in his mouth.
Liberals always did have contempt for the very same people they claim to be "fighting for."
Whether it was Carter's "malaise" speech or Kerry's "well voters are just stupid," liberals can't help let slip once in a while what they really think of the voters, especially when voters won't let liberals have their way.
Democrats always claim the voters are having a tantrum when they don't vote the way democrats like.
But it's the Democrats that are having the tantrum, and it's starting even before any votes have been cast.
John Kerry: Democrats woes stem from uninformed voters
Its the electorate, stupid!
A testy U.S. Sen. John F. Kerry yesterday blamed clueless voters with short attention spans for the uphill battle beleaguered Democrats are facing against Republicans across the nation.
We have an electorate that doesnt always pay that much attention to whats going on so people are influenced by a simple slogan rather than the facts or the truth or whats happening, Kerry told reporters after touring the Boston Medical Center yesterday.
Conservative political blogger William Jacobson, who writes Legal Insurrection, immediately pounced on Kerrys comments, saying that attitude is why voters are looking to shake up Capitol Hill by electing upstart candidates such as U.S. Sen. Scott Brown.
It just continues the Democrats theme that the reason people are upset is because they dont understand. Theyre not smart enough. That sort of rhetoric just gets people even more upset, said Jacobson.
Democratic consultant Phil Johnston, former chairman of the state party, jumped to Kerrys defense, saying, Thats absurd. Hes just making the point that people have real lives to lead and most people are not spending a lot of time worrying about politics, particularly in a tough economy. Ive known John Kerry for 35 years and he doesnt look down on people.
