| Kerry fortifies war chest, keeps momentum for 2008 |
| 2005-03-09 |
| WASHINGTON - It was an intimate political gathering: Sen. John F. Kerry [related, bio] playing host to about 100 of his richest friends. Kerry huddled with his top fund-raisers Monday night in his Georgetown mansion, preparing a massive money push aimed at keeping the defeated presidential nominee's ambitions alive. ``He wants to keep his team together,'' said one member of Kerry's national finance team. ``He's looking ahead. He will be a strong voice in the party.'' Strategists say Kerry will use his new political action committee, Keeping America's Promise, to promote his agenda, help party causes and keep his army of 2.7 million supporters together. ``It's something that has never been done before - in terms of a nominee coming back,'' said a Kerry source. ``We're trying to stay relevant.'' Â Unlike most defeated nominees, Kerry has barely broken stride since the November election. He's been busy pushing legislation on kid's health care, traveling overseas, raising money and expanding his political network. Kerry's PAC will raise money for other candidates, parties and issues - helping Kerry build political chits. He will also use his PAC for staff, travel and more fund-raising. |

| #12 I haven't seen anything on THK's view that Hanoi John lost the election because 2 brothers own 90% of the voting machines in the US and they were fixed to elect Chimpy McHitler. There was a little bit on Fox but not much else. I haven't been able to Google anything, either. Talk about a Moonbat! |

| #9 My biggest satisfaction is that we will have hoots and snorts delivered on a regular basis by the insane THK. Shows, at least in this case, money doesn't buy sanity, beauty, or class |
