John Kerry

I've never posted this story here because I heard it on the radio in June ... on a podcast, so I didn't have a link.

It was a telephone call from Massachusetts resident to the syndicated Stephanie Miller. The caller got teary, explaining that a family member, who was a disabled veteran, had gotten caught up in a giant mess with the VA health system. In despair after a long, long time of wrangling and losing, the family contacted their Massachusetts senators. In less than a week, Kerry's office was in touch, and the problem was resolved. The family was contacted by the Senator, who was concerned that all had been resolved. The other senator? Crickets.

Kerry is pure class, and he is everything Mitt will never be or could dream of being.
