John Kerry and his clumsy statement about the "global test" turned against him. Not only is he now portrayed as a flip-flopper, but also as "our man in America". This has been going on for a while. As Dana Milbank from the Washington Post reports, these days Kerry only speaks French in private. He is afraid of French media, which are going crazy for him. He refuses interviews! He is too busy!






Kerry is not going to do anything about it. The anti-French feeling, a very good job of Jacques Chirac, is now strong in America and Kerry's french connection is not going to sell.

These are the times. American is stigmatized in France. France is stigmatized in America. Bush didn't push much about this in the first debate. Only a little. Maybe in the next debate, we will hear more about Chirac.
