He didn't want there to be a video clip of him apologizing, so he had someone from his office post an apology on his website.
That's hardly an apology, and it hardly gets us to "Ok, he apologized, let's move on." He didn't apologize -- he had one of his lackeys post a generic apology in a public place, not even his own words. How in the hell did he win the primary again?

Because he represents the bluest of the misguided-liberal blue states.

Unfortunately, Kerry's actions and apologies (?) have caused him to cancel all pre-election travel and political appearances.
We need him out on the road showing us who he supports, so there's no confusion.
As it stands now, the liberals are afraid to let Kerry, Pelosi, Reid, Kennedy, Jackson, or Sharpton say anything - hoping voters won't know the truth.

Honestly though, what was the choice? Bush or Kerry? I'd rather vote for the lesser evil than not vote at all.

Not that it would ever be an issue, of course, since Castro wouldn't allow free elections, much less allow anyone to run against him.

Well, he was. The last few months, not so much.

Exactly. I've done the same thing as 33Girl more times than I care to think about.
What never ceases to amaze me is the sheer number of people who are completely incapable of saying, "I'm sorry," or "I was wrong." I'm not talking just about Kerry, but he's definitely the poster child of the day for this phenomenon. This is definitely one of those times when an "I'm sorry, I was wrong," is needed, and not "I'm sorry, but...".

Exactly, we've been waiting to hear from Bush for some time now. I think he's been teh poster child for this for a few years? We definitely need an "I'm sorry I was wrong" from him.
If we are getting trivial and whatnot. This country is growing far too sensitive to everything. Whatever happened to the hardline Conservatives who stood behind what they said? Those that made statements and stuck to them, instead of cutting and running like these hippie Liberals? Now they speak out against people that do these same things, they want apologies and they make me sad.
