John Kerry was still about a trillion times more sincere of a candidate than the lady who thought she deserved the Presidency as a career achievement award

Tatum Girlparts posted:Oh, that's why I said "In a not 'well bush is gonna gently caress us' context". Like, if you were voting in the primary would you pick Kerry as choice #1? I wasn't politically active then tbh other than hating Bush. One guy mentioned that Kerry was more leftist than Wesley Clark. I heard good things about Dean, too.

Also, much like Clinton's candidacy, my undying hatred for the right and their constant attacks on him galvanized my support for him further.

Dean is so tragic, apparently if you were there in person it was a totally appropriate noise he made but for whatever reason the way it got recorded made it sound super duper funny and his entire campaign got torpedoed by a meme

just think, the loving idiots in the media actually tightly controlled the narrative as recently as 2004. poo poo like the Dean Scream works when people can just have fun with it without the "very serious people" acting sanctimonious

pre-scream dean was probably the best democratic candidate we've had run in the past 20 years besides obama, and if he got elected, was probably better from a policy standpoint too.

It's kind of sad to see how old he started looking near the end of his tenure. Thankfully he's looking better lately. Lotta less stress probably too.

Ballmer was by all accounts bad at his job and should have never been put in charge of the company in the first place (he was good at business but knew nothing about computers), but it sure was good for a hoot and a half, huh?

Him coming off as a bit of a spaz made entertaining TV but he was a dead letter well before it happened.
