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.
Kerry is exactly right. How many here have friends who are as interested in politics as you are? I have a lot of friends but not many to talk politics with.
Oh yes, I saw him look down on that swiftboater who was seeking an ambassadorship, Sam Fox, when Fox had to face him at Kerry's senate panel.
Major Swift Boat Donor To Kerry: "You're A Hero". That was quite funny.
Did you side with the swiftboaters against Kerry back then?
