Now we have him making this crack:
-
"The Dean campaign is saying you're kind of stealing their thunder on this on-line petition," Dave Price, a reporter for Des Moines-based WHO-TV 13, to which Kerry responded with a smirk: "Well, the last person I heard who claimed he had invented the Internet didn't do so well."
The response earned restrained yucks from the gaggle of reporters. But Dean's staff hadn't said they invented on-line petition drives, and Kerry didn't refute that Dean's started at the same time.
I'm a practical guy, and if taking pot shots at Gore can get Kerry elected fine with me. But, I'm pretty sure this betrays a deeper misunderstanding of what's been going on with the media the last few years.
Time to get a clue John Kerry, or the media onslaught you face is going to make "getting Gored" look like walk in the park.
Some free advice, from a supporter.
