BLog The Vote- Kerry Can Wait...Not

Kerr "Can afford to take his time" aides say. With the 2008 Democratic presidential field taking shape fast, Senator John F. Kerry still hasn't decided whether to join the race, and maintains that the early announcements from other candidates won't push him to act in haste, according to Kerry aides and associates. Kerry has indicated that he will announce his intentions by the end of January, in keeping with his publicly stated intention to do so "shortly after the turn of the year." His aides have drafted a "John Kerry for President '08" financial plan that will restart his fund-raising efforts with a series of house parties organized by activists around the country -- if he decides to pursue the presidency again. With $13 million still in his campaign account and wide name recognition stemming from his failed 2004 run, Kerry advisers feel that the senator can afford to take his time, unlike some other Democrats already in the race.

I feel that Kerry chances are null, he has no shot at winning the nomination. He was not one of the big campaigners for 2006 and that shows he is a washed up Democrat with little clout. The only remaining person from 2004 is John Edwards because he took a step out of spotlight following the election and has come back looking like a Presidential candidate. Kerry on the other hand, should probably go to his home and write a book or do something worthwhile.

What do you think?
