Somehow, Joan Vennochi has decided to write about Hillary Clinton's women supporters, for some obscure reason and some meeting they had with Patrick, Kerry, and Kennedy. As often with her, an empty column, where she tries to tell us that she is a Democratic supporter :rofl:. The beginning and end of the column gives us a good idea of the entire column, where no cliché is too good for her.

Still, no satisfaction for Clinton's sisterhood

DEVAL PATRICK brought his cool. John Kerry brought his angst. Ted Kennedy brought his wife.
...
Kennedy, Kerry, and Patrick are mistaken if they believe all their female supporters can be counted on to stay there.
In the same time, the Times of London has an article about Kerry's efforts to help students get loans.
John Kerry, the former US Presidential runner, yesterday sought to force through emergency federal funding for student loans after Citigroup said that it was withdrawing from lending to some American universities.
The move by Citigroup to reduce its exposure to the $85 billion-a-year student loans market represents the fourth bank in a month to withdraw. Last month HSBC said it was no longer planning to offer loans to American students.
Yesterday Senator Kerry proposed legislation called the Emergency Student Loan Liquidity Market Act. It is understood that Mr Kerry is in talks to have the proposals addressed in the short term so that students can benefit from new funding arrangements in time for the new academic year, which starts in August.
