Centrist Dems To Kerry: Apologize Dummy

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Dumb Things Said By Smart People, Elections

Claire McCaskill’s campaign called on Sen. John Kerry to apologize for a “botched joke” he made on Monday.

“[McCaskill] said it’s a dumb thing to say and he should apologize,” said McCaskill spokeswoman Adrainne Marsh.

Then from Harold Ford, Jon Tester and Ben Cardin:

“Whatever the intent, Senator Kerry was wrong to say what he said,” said Democratic Rep. Harold Ford Jr., running for Senate in Tennessee.

“Sen. Kerry’s remarks were poorly worded and just plain stupid,” said Montana Senate President Jon Tester, a Democrat trying to unseat GOP Sen. Conrad Burns. “He owes our troops and their families an apology.”

“I’m sorry he did what he did. But I think the issue … we want to make sure it doesn’t confuse the subject of the war in Iraq,” Democratic Rep. Ben Cardin, running for Senate in Maryland, said on CNN.

Thank you Senators and potential Senators. Your condemnations are appreciated and noted.
