KerryPool: Scutter Does the Hustle Edition

In these Kerry campaign pool reports, Stephanie Cutter cuts loose:

Light color - as we walked in scutter twirled to the Hustle, harpoon ipa in hand. wade - who changed into his parachutte pants - swilled a bud light, prompting cutter to call him "candy-assed wade." Kidding about the pants.

David Wade spins:

Poolers note: every reporter and photogs who roamed room said there were boos, including me, wade insisted it was the accoustics of the room

And the natives continue to be restless:

I asked if [we] could have press conference and he laughed. . .

Also, THK speaks French!

Kerry made a very brief appearance at the south boston's 200 year celebration and fundraiser for at risk kids. The only thing of note: he was greeted with a mix of boos and cheers, which apparently is typical of a southie greeting. The event was held in a football sized room a level down from the other event. This is for pat h - it looked like a hanger, high ceiling with metal rafter, disturbed only by two racks of colored lights. On the floor it looked like a typical fundraiser - mnostly white crowd sitting around a round table getting drunk. Light color - as we walked in scutter twirled to the Hustle, harpoon ipa in hand.wade - who changed into his parachutte pants - swilled a bud light, prompting cutter to call him “candy-assed wade.” Kidding about the pants. Kerry was introduced by long line of southie polls, culminating with rep. Steve lynch, who took moakley' seat when he died. In an unusual move, lynch quited the crowd with nine shhhh!s.  On came kerry who spoke for a few minutes and said nothing. I will transcribe remarks now and send them out. Kerry will dine at Nine Park and your pooler will waste away another hour of his life. Poolers note: every reporter and photogs who roamed room said there were boos, including me, wade insisted it was the accoustics of the room, vandy

Left restaurant at w 10.30. Shook hands and talked to small crowd when leaving. I asked if er could have press conference and he laughed and then said monday or tuesday. He walked home withj thk and stopped to chat with a suspicious looking bunch in cab - turned out it was shag, pat h and the crew. Thk said where's the bar as the jfk tugged at her. Jfk said he ate duck and thk said she had “a little bit this, a little bit of that” but she used some french phrase your unilingual pooler did not understand. They held hands and giggled a lot. He said he's going to work and when asked like what, thk said “putting up with me.” Night all
