The Brahmin Noodle

Please, Lord, prevent John Kerry from self-imploding until AFTER he has received the official nomination this summer. I'm putting the over/under on electoral votes for Kerry at 121. His campaign slogan (post-election) is gonna change to "We Beat Dukakis!"

The jokes just write themselves sometimes. From the Boston Globe:

Kerry, in an interview Sunday on NBC's "Meet The Press," was asked whether he would follow President Bush's example and release all of his military records. "I have," Kerry said. "I've shown them -- they're available for you to come and look at." He added that "people can come and see them at headquarters."

But when a reporter showed up yesterday morning to review the documents, the campaign staff declined, saying all requests must go through the press spokesman, Michael Meehan. Late yesterday, Meehan said the only records available would be those already released to this newspaper.

"He is releasing all military records he has released to The Boston Globe," Meehan said in a telephone interview. In a follow-up e-mail, Meehan said it was those particular records to which Kerry was referring on "Meet the Press."

Drudge Report has this line from a speech by Republican National Committee Chair, Ed Gillespie:

"Guess it depends on what your definition of the word 'all' is."

I said it before, I'll say it again. Stick a fork in the Brahmin Noodle, he's cooked - and in only three minutes
