Of course, Bush was worse. ... John Kerry was a corporatist and a militarist. George Bush was a proto-fascist and a genuine threat.

John Kerry made a mistake of saying something embarrassing while a microphone was on. And now he's been backpedaling. So now he's hired a guy and his sole job is to make sure John Kerry's microphone is off. It's the same guy that used to watch Clinton's fly.

John Kerry takes a backseat to no one when it comes to maintaining the strongest military on the face of the Earth and keeping our promises to America's veterans, and across this country citizens are responding to his call for change.

When John Kerry and Zell Miller and George Bush can agree on an issue, you know it's got legs.

I care about John Kerry.

I think my friend and colleague John Kerry is doing a great job, ... I think he was out early, he's worked hard, he's speaking to all of these issues, and I expect he will announce his candidacy and I expect to support him and I expect he'll win.
