John Kerry
In reply to the discussion: Do any of my fellow long term JK supporters buy into the -Kerry =Brown theory? [View all]MBS
(9,688 posts)i rarely watch Maddow and I didn't even watch the rest of the show beyond this opening bit. I don't have a clue as to her opinion about who should be SoS or SoD,and, frankly, I don't care. I only wanted to say that I agreed with her general point: that choice of SoS is a serious one, and it should be made seriously, as free from political games as possible.
As I've said before, I think that this whole process has been handled badly on all fronts.
it's been insulting and unfair to good people, especially to Kerry. Luckily, Kerry is larger and wiser than this silliness, and, no matter what the outcome for what are, in the end, really secondary issues, like titles and jobs, I am sure that Sen. Kerry will come out the winner. in fact, he already is the winner , showing pitch-perfect judgment in the way he's handled this nonsense so far.
(But , yeah. OK, I fervently hope that he doesn't take SoD. The SoD job would be a nightmare, not to mention a bizarre misuse of his talents)
