I think this speaks for itself:
(From Yahoo! News)Yikes.
Springer, who was the mayor of Cincinnati before hosting the raunchy "The Jerry Springer Show," was named Democrat of the Year by the state party last weekend. He was named Friday as one of 159 delegates and 24 alternates from Ohio at the convention July 26-29, when Sen. John Kerry is expected to be nominated as the party's candidate for president.

I bet Springer made a big donation.

Well, that's one way to make Kerry look good!
He should be allowed a speech at the convention, flanked by a couple of those 300 pound battling lesbo bitches, that populate the Springer show.
After looking and hearing those three sows ears, Kerry would look like a silk purse!

Amy,
The article does mention that, "Springer, 60, spent about $1 million last year exploring whether to run for the Senate before deciding not to challenge incumbent Republican Sen. George Voinovich." I would have put the "spent" in quotes.
