My first political rally

[aussie1234]

Tonight I along with Erin, Kaitlin and Kate attended John Kerry's rally at 5th/3rd Field (or 53rd Field as JK called it). I thought this would be an interesting opportunity to see the political process in action, and I had a lot to see from the moment we sat down

i actually wasn't impressed by his humor. i may have been at the time i leaned over to you and said "hey, he has a sense of humor" but it was really more being surprised than being impressed (because lets face it, he doesn't come off as a happy-go-lucky kind of guy most of the time). and the more i thought about it and the more cracks he made at dubya, the more it actually sort of bothered me. i thought it was sort of tasteless, like he could have been above mocking dubya's accent and whatnot (and the comments about the dancing... well that didn't bother me so much as it was just damn corny). BUT, like my dad said, kerry knew he could say whatever the hell he wanted because do you think that rally was really going to turn anyone there against him? you can say whatever you want when you have a baseball stadium full of your worshippers hanging on your every word.

i am still all for kerry, i would just rather him not try to be funny, cause he's not.

anyways... i guess i just wanted to clear that up.... nice reflection on the rally. it was quite the experience.
