Kerry helped to propel Barack Obama to the national stage. He was Obama's top surrogate in 2008. Obama acknowledged that Kerry played a huge part in his election. Kerry has been tapped for diplomatic missions by President Obama. He was selected by the President as his debate partner.

With that history, the NYT produces a bullshit article about Kerry working to "deepen his relationship," citing unnamed aides maligning Kerry and attributing their nasty comments to the President?

Beyond silly.
