5. Rope-a-Dope
I'm not the first one to suggest this strategy (PeteNYC?), but I think it is real and will work beautifully.

2. lol yeah he should stay incognito right now!
This is too good to step in between now! He has no need to campaign at this point in time.

6. yep, and every time he opens his mouth, he either blabs on too long,
sucking the energy out of the room, or makes some statement the media jumps all over, putting him on the defensive

try a putative rose garden strategy as long as you can, John

be like Dick Cheney

lose yourself...let them continue their self-immolation

4. Yes!
If Kerry starts commenting, Americans will start thinking that this is just more election-year politics. Everything is going just fine right now without him, he needs to keep out of the spotlight for awhile and give the public some time to digest everything that's going on.

8. Suggestions For Kerry - Mon. March 29


****....
The Kerrys, IMO, should come back Monday and agree to an interview in their living room. With his wife and all of their children by his side say....

The 911 Hearings Represent Democracy in Action. I have nothing but praise for the committee members for their efforts on behalf of our country. I believe they are sincere in their resolve to keep us safe in the future. I hope that every American supports their efforts to Uncover the TRUTH about 9 11.

I was especially touched by the Remarks given by Richard Clarke at the Hearings last Wednesday to the families of the 9 11 Victims. The families are our true heroes and I will not blemish the memory of their loved ones by responding in a way that could be considered by some as partisan.

My wife Theresa and our children(name them) are with me in saluting the 911 families. They desperately want PEACE in our World. PEACE for our children and PEACE for our children's children.
The Kerry Family Stands Beside Them In This Monumental Journey

Thank you and good night
( Take no further questions, too solemn a statement)

10. I like Kerry better when I don't hear him or see him.
I think he should stay on vacation.
