"I once spent a year in Dubuque, I think it was on a Sunday"
Drudge has the latest scoop on the elite candidate, John Kerry:

"I hate going to places like Austin and Dubuque to raise large sums of money. But I have to," Kerry revealed to the BOSTON GLOBE.

Poor baby! Actually, the locals might not really care to have Lurch hanging around either.

A Kerry staffer explained the senator holds no personal dislike of Dubuque or its residents.

"He's actually very excited to be making the trip this weekend," said the insider.

Sounds like he really likes to mingle with the little people.
