Kerry wasn't bad. Some people go for looks, (don't laugh at what I am about to say) and Bush is slightly better looking than Kerry. Plus, some people wanted Bush to finish what he had started in Iraq ( Total assumption here). But whatever...what's done is done. I agree, HIllary/ Obama would be the ideal ticket;however, I doubt that Obama is going to settle for VP. Let's see what happens. I like them both...Hopefully, Americans will make the right choice this time around.
