Yahoo! News - Kerry Rises from Political Ashes to Face Bush

Subtitle: Meet John Kerry- a brief synopsis so far

To help dispel the notion that he is a cerebral elitist who has trouble connecting with people, Kerry has appeared on a late-night television show riding a motorcycle, shot pheasant on an Iowa farm, graced the cover of American Windsurfer magazine in a wetsuit and used a four-letter profanity in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine.

Kerry is a strong abortion-rights advocate even though, as a Catholic, he is personally opposed to it and believes life begins at conception. He supports minimum wage hikes, protecting the environment and expanding health care. In 1995, he and Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona successfully pushed for normalization of U.S. relations with Vietnam.

OK, ok, ok.....I have to vote for Mr. "Separate But Equal". After some careful thought with an eye towards the big picture, Kerry's gotta be the guy. It's way too close, way too important to think of going any other way. I'll be a good dog and get back on board.

Bring on the convention, whoop-dee-doo. Jennifer speaks on Wed., I believe.

We need a touchdown here, John. This speech better be the best one of your life.
