If I were running this campaign, I'd question the 'sunburst' color theme.

Let's see, at this rate - a crash while snowboarding and a fall while biking - if Kerry does become president he will become the next Gerald Ford complete with a character on SNL aping him and his accident prone ways.

LOL, I was just thinking the same thing as Steve except that the SNL character will probably make some oblique reference to “how dare you question my patriotism, I served in Vietnam!” each time he falls.

Dittos on the color scheme and the helmet.

My comment on my own blog (before reading the comments here):

"Hmmmm... First it's the tumble on the ski slopes, now he's falling off his bike. I wonder if one of those sonuvabitches from the Secret Service knocked him over again? Is anyone besides me starting to get Jerry Ford vibes about this guy? Chevy Chase, where are you when we need you?"

Evidently the answer is, "Yes."

Dukakis looked better in the tank.

He's the opposite of a cowboy....

No kidding. Traditionally the saving grace of snooty New England WASPs has been their drab color sense-- you don't have to look at them even if you're looking at them.

Kerry was imitating the part of that episode where President Bartlet reveals that he's a personally opposed/pro-choice-Catholic? Oh, you mean the bicycle thing.

I raised the issue with my students this morning this way: why is Kerry wearing a "Milwaukee Panthers" t-shirt (i.e. a t-shirt for the sports team where I teach, UWM)?

One student thought it was to counteract Bush's visit to the region. From this angle voters are encouraged to reason, "Bush may be here in the midwest today, but at least Kerry is wearing the t-shirt of a midwestern university..."

I myself am inclined to think he simply likes his sports gear color-coordinated.

Which begs the question, why does he own an orange ten-speed with yellow handle-bars and an orange and yellow bicycle helmet?

When do they expect the Purple Heart paperwork to be submitted on this?

That's it. I was going to vote for him, for the gridlock factor. But, I can't bring myself to vote for someone dressed like an orange/bannana Frusion.

"Bicycle unleashes savage attack on John Kerry's patriotism"

Any mention of the SOB who caused him to fall off of his bike?

Also, I look at the picture and I don't see a flower thingy. Where's the flower thingy?

He's trying to match the 1960s-prepped femme fatale of a PC video game spy-spoof?
