(From the diaries -- kos)

I'm waiting on the transcript, but a moment ago Donna Brazille killed the "John Kerry was an indistinguished as a Senator" meme.

In the "rapid fire" section of Crossfire she said the following to a Republican Strategist...

"Dick Cheney was in the house for over a decade. How many bills did he pass?"

The Republican Strategist paused, looked physically ill, then tried to change the subject by saying "Well, he was aknowledged as a leader."

There was laughter in the crowd.

But Brazille didn't let him go. She leaned forward and very calmly told the truth.

"2 bills".

2 bills for Cheney. 57 for Kerry.

Code blue! Code Blue!

Um... never mind... play taps, 'cause the meme is dead.

What can I say, while I have lamented Kerry's less than feverishly impassioned legislative record, Dick
Cheney's simply leaves me agog. What was he doing all that time?
