Kerry Should Worry About Senate Seat

John KerryWhen John Kerry announced that he was not going to run for the presidency in 2008, everyone figured that he meant it. Now, as reported on April 15 by Colorado's 9NEWS, he could be mid flip-flop (I invented that term, just for him) and might consider running again:
Sen. John Kerry (D-Massachusetts) reopened the door to a possible 2008 presidential campaign during a book signing in Denver and then again, in an interview with 9NEWS.

...while answering a question from a viewer on the program YOUR SHOW about why he chose not to run, Kerry said he had decided it wasn't the right time.

"Could that change?" Kerry said. "It might. It may change over years. It may change over months. I can't tell you, but I've said very clearly I don't consider myself out of it forever."
But Kerry has bigger problems than running for the White House right now. A poll released three days ago, conducted in Massachusetts by Suffolk University, shows that Kerry should be more worried about getting re-elected to the Senate, let alone getting elected as president:
Senator John Kerry, who recently left the door open to a Presidential bid in 2008, could have problems staying in the US Senate. When voters were asked whether Kerry should run for another six-year term in 2008 or if it is time to give someone else a chance, just 37% indicated that he should seek re-election while 56% said that it was time to give someone else a chance.
Kerry never ceases to amuse...
