KERRY FANS RALLY AT ONE OF HIS FIVE HOUSES
Wonkette on the now-concluded Ohio recount:
We lost, everybody. L-O-S-T. Just concentrate on your Canadian visa applications; if you screw that up, you can’t blame Deibold.
Presumably she’s addressing the likes of Boston’s John Kerry Six, a proud mini-collective who’ll never surrender:
About a half dozen supporters of John Kerry are holding vigil in front of his house, still hoping for a Kerry presidency.
The little knot of demonstrators, calling themselves the Coalition Against Election Fraud, stood shivering in the cold yesterday, hoisting signs and pressing fliers into the hands of bewildered passersby. Taxi drivers, neighbors digging cars out of the snow, and Beacon Hill residents who happened to be strolling by were subjected to earnest pleas to join the cause.
’‘Who knows? Maybe we’ll overturn the election,” said Sheila Parks, a vigil organizer.
In any case, Kerry wasn’t home to take notice of yesterday’s demonstrators. A woman answered the door and promised to deliver a message when he returns from vacation.
Kerry’s old high school band had twice as many members.
