Enemies lists always seemed to be a last resort of politicians slipping into paranoia. What the Clintons have likely done with these actions is to have finally exhasted the good will of Democrats who have been there for them for decades.  This article ignores that Senator Kerry has said that no matter who gets the nomination, he will "work his heart out". If it is our misfortune that HRC is the nominee, I would be willing to bet that she would not reject John Kerry as a surrogate, as he has always been a very effective one - especially in hitting McCain's position on Iraq. The author of the quoted article has fallen victim to the MSM effort to diminish Senator Kerry. He also chairs a committee that is easily as important as some of the others named. He was the author as much as any other Senator of the current Democratic Iraq position and more than anyone convinced the country we need to set a deadline and get out.  Though the Clintons hate him, she uses his words when speaking of Iraq and terrorism.   He is also the Senator who has behind the scenes for the most part taken the lead on global warming.  Kerry was the Congressional delegation to Bali. Though the media gave little attention to this - Kerry was praised in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee by the Bush administration for the work he did there. The President’s chairman of the Council on Environmental Quality, James Connaughton, spoke before the SFRC hearing chaired by Senator Menendez. Mr. Connaughton was part of the President’s delegation who attended the second week of the Bali Conference. Because of the Senate schedule, Senator Kerry flew 40 hours round trip to spend 36 hours as the sole US Congressional representative to the conference. At a SFRC hearing earlier this year, Mr. Connaughton, who represented President Bush said: “I would particularly also want to call out thanks to Senator Kerry for coming to Bali. I would note that the remarks he gave in Bali were very constructive in helping to educate the international community on the needs, what it would take for America to move forward together in a bi-partisan way. I thought those remarks were very well received. Senator Kerry, thank you for that.” Listening to the hearing, the Senator is praised for his leadership on this issue by both Republicans and Democrats. <a href="http://www.senate.gov/%7Eforeign/hearings/2008/hrg080124p.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.senate.gov/~foreign/hearings/2008/hrg080124p...</a> Here was even stronger praise from an earth day SFRC hearing: Ambassador Stuart Eizenstat (around 4 minutes in) said: "The fact that we had a treaty was significantly due to the fact that Senator Kerry was there.

(I was surprised to see this on Kerryvision because I had heard nothing on this and it was the same day Kerry did an amazing job on the Future of the Internet hearing. He also will be one of the Senators working with Kennedy on the actual health care bill that will go to the Democratic President. When you combine all three of these, you have someone who will be a power in the Senate. It is also true that that power comes from the good work he has done - not because he twisted arms. Though Senator Kerry will likely never be President, he likely deserves to prouder and happier with who he is and his life - after all in addition to anything he's accomplished as a Senator, he will be remembered as the moral young man who asked, "How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?", where President Clinton may be most remembered by his eloquent words, "I did not have ....." and HRC may be forever tied to her "heroics" in Bosnia. (That beg the question - Why did Clinton have no problem with his wife speaking of non existent sniper fire, but said he would consider voting Bush if Kerry spoke of Vietnam again - and Kerry never spoke of being under sniper fire.)                       It is sad to see this side of a former Democratic President and First Lady.
