TNR's Ryan Lizza blogging about his Kerry campaign postmortem:
Somehow my favorite quote never made it into the final draft. It's from a senior Kerry adviser who was discussing Kerry's inability to connect with the values of everyday Americans. Here it is for posterity: "Clinton went back and executed that retarded guy. That said, 'I share your values.'" Let's hope that between now and 2008 Democrats will come up with some other ways to bridge the values gap.
When you start saying stuff like this, it's a sign you need to leave politics.
