#1 I say this is a good analogy for this race: The rich execs who greedily charge the everyman $5 for a hamburger, v/s the guy who actually throws the strikes over the plate.

#2 The average fan would know there's a HUGE difference between the owners and GM as opposed to a player. In baseball, owners are scum who drive up ticket prices, charge too much for beer and hot dogs, and do everything in their power to make more money.

For the Kerry team to go, "Hey, he's got Schilling, so we should get some Sox" and be able only to come up with those bluebloods speaks worlds about the differences in the two candidates.

#3 Theo's a rich kid from Brookline, a serious beautiful people suburb of Boston. Werner was Katie Coric's boytoy for awhile and made his money as a TV producer. I think Henry's an alien, as in extraterrestrial. I'd rather have them spend their time trying to sign Pedro, Varitek, and Cabrera.

#4 So the supposed Schilling email that renounced his political activism was bogus?
Who wrote it?

#5 So they were unable to get even one Red Sox player to shill for Kerry? A lifelong Bostonian! Speaks volumes of what they think of the man.

#6 Speaks volumes, as does Edwards' inability to get re-elected in his own state

#7 Werner was Katie Coric's boytoy for awhile and made his money as a TV producer.

Werner was also one of the Padre owners back in '92. The same schmuck who had the brilliant idea of inviting Roseanne Barr to sing the national anthem. He dismantled the team while it still had a shot at the playoffs.
