Kerry eats only the finest ketchup

In a recent interview with Politico.com, John Kerry discusses a myriad of different things, but most entertaining is his consistent reference to and obvious continuing disgust regarding his 2004 presidential loss. I used to always attribute Kerry’s dull personality and doofus-like mannerisms to his droning voice and images of SNL impressions, but somehow these characteristics manage to come through in writing, as well.

Nevertheless, he is a good sport and the article is pretty funny; despite his perpetual unhappiness about 2004 and his disdain for everything Republican, he has quite a few witty comments. My personal favorite question / response:

Q: On what types of products do you never go cheap, for the sake of quality?

A: Ketchup.

May I remind you his wife’s name is Teresa Hines-Kerry.
