Mullahs Heart Kerry

Powerline finds a place where John Kerry is respected and admired. Outside of Massachusetts, that is: It’s Iran. By the mullah-friendly press: “Thanks John, you’re really a big help.”

Relief may be on the way. We may have a Republican candidate who can take Kerry in 2008.  Curt Schilling. Twenty-six years later, who would have thought it would be this hard? Welcome to Massachusetts.

The (Bush-backing) Red Sox pitching hero didn’t flatly rule out the idea, either, though he didn’t sound like he was about to hit the campaign trail anytime soon.

“I couldn’t rule it out because it’s not something I ever thought about in a serious capacity,” Schilling told the Herald. 

“I envision that I will probably be pretty busy in 2008,” he said. “But I’m flattered as hell to even make this phone call.” 

The chatter around Schilling taking on Kerry in a senate race started on talk station WRKO-AM (680) yesterday, when a caller to the Todd Feinberg show suggested Schilling would be the best candidate for the job.

“It just kind of energized from there,” Feinberg said. “He became the popular candidate.”

WRKO also put up an online petition yesterday asking people to choose between Schilling and Kerry. As of yesterday evening 800 votes had been cast and Schilling was leading by 96 percent.

Of course, on WRKO, 96 percent would vote for Mr. Magoo over John Kerry. 

I generally would prefer to avoid political endorsements, but I could get behind a Magoo candidacy. Schilling, however, has the vision thing.

    As a practical matter, its certainly more efficient to simply bypass the fighting and negotiation phases and go straight to collaboration. Cagey, very cagey.
