Who's Your Daddy?

Are we on the verge of greatest comback in, a. political, b. baseball history ? As our local heros stuggle with the likes of dynasties, the Bushes and the Yankees, I was struck by the similarity in their respective seasons. Both Kerry and the Red Sox surged early only to fade in the end.

But one coincidence really stands out. Bush had his convention in New York and Kerry had his in Boston. And as conventions go, it was no contest. The Democrats, they are no Red Sox.

Did I hear Kerry say, while in Arizona last week, that if he had to choose between the Presidency and the World Series this year, he would choose the former ? In that statement lies everything you need to know about John Kerry. Who's your daddy, John?
