Of course, the fact that a person plays the guitar is no reason to vote for him. Heck, Mike Huckabee plays, and I wouldn't vote for him for a low level PTA spot. But he's still kind of cool in a way McCain just isn't, and he appears fundamentally (no pun) honest, something the
McCain campaign abandoned long ago. I don't agree with either of their policies, but if I did, I'd be inclined to pick Huckabee over McCain because it seems he's stayed true to his beliefs. You've got to admire that, even if you don't agree.
There are a lot of good reasons to vote for Sen. Kerry next Tuesday. The guitar thing isn't one of them, but it's still pretty awesome, and it looks like he's having a lot of fun. The reason to vote for Sen. Kerry is that he's been an honest and hard working public servant for decades, and that he's focused on issues that are important to his constituents.
The guitar playing is kind of a bonus, though, don't you think?
The 'Kerry on Your Corner' tour paid a visit to Taunton last month, and Sen. Kerry stopped by Eastern Music while he was in town to check out the merchandise and entertain the customers.
Classical guitar is one music genre that's been missing from my ipod, so it's a good thing our friends at John Kerry Media Source are able to lend a hand. You can load the video to your ipod when you click on JK2Go.
Boy, they think of everything, don't they?
I'm not sure I've ever heard the Senator talk about playing with The Electras back in the day. I do know they have a website, and that
you can buy copies of their album, which is pretty groovy if you're into early sixties cover
bands. Personally, I prefer 'Spanish Romance' to 'Yellow Jacket', but it's good to have a choice.
You can leave your guitar and your ipod at home, but don't forget to take a friend along when you go vote for JK next Tuesday.

I didn't know they had a website. That's pretty cool. Thanks for sharing.
