Kerry's new career

Regardless of who wins the election in November, Kerry will have to look for a new job sometime. If he wins, he has at most 8 years before he needs to do something new. If he loses, it might be sooner because he may not want to remain or convince the voters next time to re-elect him to the Senate.

What to do.

He could afford to wind surf and snow board all year given his wife's income, but the Boston Globe has another option for Kerry. Become a stand up comic. Jeff Jacoby gives a good list of Kerry's knee slappers, not only from this year but as far back as 1988.

With a little polish in his delivery, we could be seeing Kerry on HBO or in Vegas as THE stand up comic routine to see.
