Kerry "thinking hard" about 2008

According to Reuters, the junior Senator from Massachusetts is thinking hard about another run for the White House.

"I will make that decision toward the end of the year, but I'm thinking about it hard," Kerry said in response to a question at the Latin Economic Forum at the United Nations.

"If you can get help me find 60,000 votes in Ohio ...," he joked, referring to the close race in that state on which his 2004 loss to President Bush hinged.

Hopefully he has some honest people advising him just how much of a longshot he would be if he did run again. The fact that he didn't run a successful campaign against this unpopular president last time around has lost him a lot of support.

I was concerned about how quickly he ran to the right in the last campaign instead of speaking as to why he is a democrat.

Kerry was a decent candidate and many of his speeches were inspirational. We shouldn't count him out but he's definately way behind a good populist candidate like Russ Feingold.
