#4 An honorable person who becomes a candidate should resign in order to better serve his or her constituants.

A self-serving s.o.b. will not resign because he or she does not want the opposition party to appoint the successor senator.

No matter what one does, one will not achieve one's goals without losing on something.

Kerry took the low ground and is trying to get it all. In doing so, he violated his trust with his electorate in Mass by playing hookey from the Senate (excused or not, it is screwing the voters). This situation shows the kind of person Kerry is.

#7 As I said a few weeks ago, I think Skerry is hedging his bets. If he does lose this November he will still be a Senator. He was one of the Senators who called for Bob Dole's resignation and now he won't do the same. I'll bet he hasn't returned any of his salry, either.

#9 I think as far as he will go is to promise show up to at least 5 votes next year.

#10 Oh, please!
If Kerry gives up his senate seat for a republican govenor to appoint his successor, and no doubt a republican replacement, Kerry "turns his back" on his party and its ideals, by giving the Senate one more, "unelected," seat. Should he do that? After all, he was elected by the voters. More than I can say for our "selected" president.
Bob Dole resigned Knowing a conservative replacement would take over for him.
Let's face it; we're absolutely talking apples and oranges here.
The man was elected and if his constituants are not clamoring for his resignation, and they're not, then he should NOT resign.
Period.

#11 Hey Anon, you think if the shoe were on the other foot the media and Dems wouldn't be screaming for the candidate's resignation? Right. Do you think the guy is doing his job? Right. And how would the people of Massachusetts best make their voice heard? Support from the media? Right.

#12 Kerry is not the first politician to keep his present job while campaigning for an "upgrade," nor should he be. We all keep our present jobs while looking for another.
Plenty of GOP new-job seekers have kept their job(s) in the past, as well they should. They were elected to the post.
This is just another obstacle a worried opposing party throws into the mix to see if it sticks.
Let's face it, this is just bulls#%t.
Let's get on with some honest politicking based on differences between the parties and candidates and let the voters decide.
Cries of resignation and such are just ways to deflect from real issues.

#13 I'll be the first to admit Skeery should keep his day job.
