Recent photo of John Kerry on January 28th following NH win...

[flpoljunkie]

Winning primaries in Iowa and New Hampshire have lifted Kerry's spirits considerably--and it shows! The shorter hair cut also gives him a more youthful look.

(Notice, however, in the photo below his wrinkled forehead--you can't do that with botox, folks.)

4. the botox stuff is nonsense anyway

he was probably using one of those hollywood style temporary wrinkle remover creams, if he was doing anything.

But either way, it doesn't matter.

Please tell me that this is a Drudge-only story, and that it hasn't been mentioned on the nightly news shows.

6. Unfortunately, it has

This crap has been all over the TV and print media.

The man had a haircut....He has lost weight....and his health is evidently robust now....Rove & Co have been all over it, though, appealing to the lowest common denominator of the shallow Krazy Kooky Konservatives.

2. I notice the Mods are napalming threads like these!

GOOD! I think I'll alert one!

On Edit...Sorry... My bad...I thought you said he used it...

3. Yep - the haircut is a definite improvement

Before he had it cut shorter he had so much hair that it drew your attention like when you look at someone with a bad toupe and can't take your eyes off it. It makes a huge difference in his appearance.

OK, so this is trite and we are supposed to judge the man and his ideas and not his appearance, but we all damned well know that appearance counts.

7. Just another half inch

and he's a shoe-in. :)

5. It has been obviously a Reb Slime tactic. Could see how different

the facial expressions on Drudges before and after pictures were.

What is sad is how Democrats here quickly jumped on the Repub
bandwagon to criticize Kerry on every imaginable superficial flaw. I does not bode well for the GE.

9. ..

Yeah, so many anti-Kerry threads,and each day more of them.Most of the time without any substance.
I assume when the front runner changes and attacks are directed at him, we will hear many of these "Please stop the attacks" or "Don't hate us because we support xxx" by the same people who engaged in the most stupid accusations against the current front runner of the week.
Already witnessed here several times.
Also interesting to see how some people picked on Clark so much again and again but when Kerry became the front runner Clark was suddenly so ok and suddenly it was anybody(Bush inclueded) but Kerry.I wonder what happens when Clark is getting some great results.
