Klein on Kerry: Plop, Plop No Fizz (Oh What a Dryball He Is)
Rush: "TIME magazine's Joe Klein, who hates Bush, is worried about Kerry and the fact that if you dropped him in a glass of water, there would be no fizzies."
Klein laments, "This is just not a very fizzy candidacy." The left has to keep trotting out the next installment of this plan to attack George W. Bush over 9/11 and Iraq, and it's going to backfire on them."
"Clarke bombed; Ben-Veniste is bombing, and Gorelick was a total loss. She's having to write a cover-my-rear-end op-ed piece in the Washington Post"
Klein: "There is an odd confusion of style and philosophy here. Bush is bold to the buoyant of recklessness, a quality conservatives usually associate with liberalism, whereas Kerry is cautious to a fault, a stylistic reaction."
"This part is so very wrong. It is Bush's boldness that people are reacting to and are made to feel confident over. They do not look at it as "recklessness." The left sees Bush this way and wants you to share their vision, but you don't".
"The old Clinton crowd, less hungry now, less rowdy, too rutted in past successes to try anything new.... [N]o prominent blacks or Latinos in the inner circle, either."
"Kerry may be the most sclerotic presidential campaign since Bob Dole's.... It is not uncommon to see audiences leaving his fund-raising events in droves while he is still speaking."
Rush: "It's what I've been telling you for months here: Kerry doesn’t excite anybody"!"
