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.
The article gives a shout out to William Jacobson at Legal insurrection, which is cool, but the online piece doesn’t provide a link which is not.
John Kerry the gift that keeps on giving…great hair though, it would almost be a crime to cover it with a fedora.
For all of those hundreds of faculty and administration who were e-mailed about the appearance and for all their students in history or government classes who were either uninterested or uninformed about a congressional candidate taking questions on campus here is some photos/video:
One of two stand out locations
Supporters stood out for Bill
Heading for the hall
They engaged students nearby
The Ex Mayor before the event
The ex mayor of Fitchburg arranged the hall, strangely enough I recall the lights being on and the bus for my kid being free when he was mayor.
State Sen candidate Neal Heeren showed up
Candidate Neal Heeren showed up as well
It would be untrue to say there were no students there except the one setting up the mike, there was a student there, unfortunately she didn’t go to Fitchburg state:
My camera had a write error so the first 20 minutes of Bill’s speech was lost, he talked about accountability and told a story of a person who although a voter who lives in the first district was told by Olver that she “wasn’t a constituent” when he found out she disagreed with him on issues.
The remainder of the speech comes in 4 parts
When the camera card filled I switched cards as quickly as possible
I found it really strange that an Audio visual department didn’t film this
When Bill was done he invited Neal Heeren to make his pitch:
He then took questions I show them individually:
I asked him about apathy:
Most answers were quick:
His answer on regulation was long, detailed and informed:
Nobody asked him about the war, (he wants the troops home, I disagree with him on this one) likely if the college kids were there he would have been asked. When everything was done I went back to Megan and asked her what she thought:
If the turnout among youth voters is an indication of the “Obama excitement” then democrats, be afraid, be very afraid.
The best news I’ve heard all day come from New Jersey
The Cherry Hill Courier Post newspaper says a Planned Parenthood facility located on Haddonfield Road and operated by Planned Parenthood of Southern New Jersey will close down.
Why is planned parenthood closing down on Haddonfield Road, because the public teat is now dry:
PP-SNJ stands to lose as much as $160,000 in taxpayer funds because of Christie’s decision and the upholding of his veto.
Part of Gov. Chris Christie’s belt-tightening plan for New Jersey was the termination of $7.5 million in public funding for Planned Parenthood clinics in the state,
You mean in a time of budget cuts we might not have the funds to pay for abortion? Awwwww.
