恭喜你 纽约邮报 打破 消息 that John Kerry has picked Dick Gephardt to be his VP candidate.
An inspired choice. Consider Gephardt’s many positions on:
– 同盟国旗
– 同性婚姻
Flip-flop, flip-flop, flip-flop.
更新: Props to ArchPundit, who saw the Gephardt pick coming 两天前.
更新二: WHOOPS: IT’S EDWARDS!!!! Geez, was my snort-detector off, or what?!
更新三: Now, 我 doing the flip-flopping: Un-props to ArchPundit. Props to 乔恩亨克. And big props to the posters at USAviation.com who had the real scoop.
更新四: Guess Kerry has retracted these thoughts about Edwards made in 一月:
“He’s a capable, talented person. But I believe the nominee of our party has to be somebody who has the experience necessary to stand up to the onslaught that will come from the Republicans,” Kerry added. “If they run this race on national security and you have a nominee who has been in the Senate four years, and that is the full extent of public life — no international experience, no military experience — you can imagine what the advertising is going to be next year.”
Kerry, 60, then joked: “When I came back from Vietnam in 1969, I don’t know if John Edwards was out of diapers then. No, I’m sure he was out of diapers by then.”
