That one popular kid

We all new that one girl in high school for whom popularity meant everything. As a freshman or a sophomore, she realized that she could become even more popular if she slept with all of the popular boys. So she did, and she was, but by the end of her Senior year, she realized that she didn't have a lot of true friends, that she was a laughing stock amongst those she thought were her friends, and she did not even respect herself.

That was Jimmy Carter's America, circa 1980. That too would be John Kerry's America, if we choose to elect him.
