This is Adam Nagourney's take on Kerry's off the cuff remarks. Apparently there are many. Nagourney describes several of them, including:
In Columbia, S.C., between satellite television interviews in February, Mr. Kerry was overheard disparaging a Democratic rival, Senator John Edwards of North Carolina, at the very time that he had made a point of not criticizing his rivals in public.
"Edwards says he's the only one who can win states in the South — he can't win his own state," Mr. Kerry said to Mr. Wade in the studio, an aside that Mr. Wade at the time insisted was not intended for public consumption.
Now that is a remark of the type worthy of hoopla status. It was said to aide and gives us otherwise unknown insight into Kerry's thoughts.
