The Drudge Report, with its famed nose for the money quote, unearths this gem about Kerry from Michael Moore:
Moore said Kerry may not be perfect, but is far superior to former Vice President Al Gore and this year’s other Democratic presidential hopefuls. “There’s a reason that they’re saying Kerry is the No. 1 liberal in the Senate,” said Moore. “It’s because he is the No. 1 liberal in the Senate.”
That’s what we like to see – Michael Moore, backing up the number one slam against Kerry currently being put forward by the Bush campaign, namely, that he’s a Liberal. Per Dick Morris:
...as Kerry moved to domestic policy and extolled his “plan” for job creation, health care, Social Security and Medicare, Bush shifted his attack much less calling Kerry a flip-flopper, much more accusing him of liberalism and tax-and-spend policies.
By declaring in the third debate that Kerry inhabits the far left bank of our politics, well away from the mainstream, Bush hit pay dirt.
Knowing that Kerry would seek to win the domestic issues by promising the moon, Bush, in great jujitsu style, used the Democrat’s strength against him, coming around his right flank adding up the cost of the promises and underscoring his adversary’s liberalism.
Some people will hear that and say, “Yeah! Being a Liberal is good. It’s good that Kerry’s the biggest Liberal in the country.” But some others will say, “Yeah… ah… waitaminnit… so Bush is right… even Moore is admitting it… ahhh… so maybe it’s all true—Kerry wants to tax us like crazy and cut the military… maybe Kerry’s not the right guy to be President right now.”
I’m glad to see Moore scoring points for the Right. And I don’t think it’s unintentional on Moore’s part. The guy’s inherently not a team player.
