Michele at A Small Victory received an email from the Committee on Arrangements from the RNC alerting her that [certain select] bloggers will receive credentials to all four days of the Republican Convention in NY, Aug 30-Sept 2; Jeff at protein wisdom received no such email and as a result has decided to throw his considerable resources behind John Kerry — who, you’ll admit, is quite a handsome, well-spoken fellow.
update: Not to mention a bonafide war hero. I mean, was Bush ever in the shit? Didn’t think so.
update 2:
You are so right on well-spoken. Why just the other day the most applause he gets in a speech is the line “I know you don’t want to be here anymore.” There’s a man who knows his audience. (Having trouble with the link: try http://www.spectator.org/dsp_article.asp?art_id=6642 )
A couple of points:
1. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Bush is doomed!
2. Who is the handsome, well-spoken fellow? Jeff at PW or John Kerry?
Jeez, Bill, hit the space key every so often next time.

PS: I didn’t get an email, either. Woe! Woe!
Woe is Moe
Kerry was a war hero? Man, that changes everything. Which war?
Don’t worry, Jeff. I’m sure it was all a bureaucratic mix-up. Happens all the time. I’m sure your email will turn up somewhere. Maybe a White House bedroom or something.
Hey, if all it takes is credentials, I’ll give you credentials to come water my backyard when I’m on vacation.
Then will you switch to Bush?
damn Jeff… that sucks. And I was so looking forward to seeing you there.
Maybe Joyner will put his up on Ebay…
Taunt me, go ahead.
They invited a lots of Canadians, actually.
Zerbisias, even.
Sure is funny you got skipped over.
Maybe it’s your spam filter?
Stupid spam filters. Stupid “diversity.”
Of course, this begs the question of whether you have received an invitation from the DNC to their convention.
“Short, dark, and handsome” doesn’t seem to float anyone’s shallow-draught boat.
Jeff, honestly, it’s going to be a lot more fun outside the convention than inside.
