22. Obviously the DNC wanted Kerry all along, but the media is far more

shameless in annointing him the undisputed champeeeen.

The DNC goes with whoever has the most juice at the DNC, natch.
But the media wants a guy with whom they can create clean "difference" memes--NE vs. South, Librul vs. Conservative. Professorial vs. Regular Joe, etc.

Since the only thing on earth lazier than my old bloodhound is a television reporter, the love affair first w/ Dean and now with Kerry is perfectly predictable. The other guys are just less easy to contrast.
