A new documentary “Inside the Bubble” about the Kerry Campaign is coming out!!

See inside the frat boy clubhouse “a disorganized, contentious, self-absorbed team that thought they could win by 'not making mistakes,' and keeping their candidate in the public eye without clarifying a position on anything.” I wonder if the two Kerry staffers who are now employed by the New Hampshire State Democratic Party are in the movie.

Kerry, the movie

"I hear that John Kerry loyalists are kicking themselves for cooperating last year with filmmaker Steve Rosenbaum on 'Inside the Bubble,' a potentially devastating behind-the-scenes look at the Massachusetts senator's failed presidential campaign," Lloyd Grove writes in his Lowdown gossip column in the New York Daily News.

"I'm also told that Hillary Clinton partisans are licking their chops to see the film, which 'could end up being the silver bullet that kills Kerry's presidential chances for 2008,' says a Lowdown spy.

"Kerry spinmeister David Wade -- one of the senior staffers who allowed Rosenbaum to film his private moments -- tried to dismiss Rosenbaum's effort as 'a childish home movie destined to be forgotten.' ...

"But people who've screened the documentary say it's compelling and revealing," Mr. Grove said.

"It features, among other not-ready-for-prime-time moments, Clinton scowling and rolling her eyes over an apparent Kerry gaffe during a presidential debate; Kerry pretending to interview himself and babbling in Italian while waiting for a real interview to begin; Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) cursing at reporters during a campaign stop, and Kerry message guru Robert Shrum confidently declaring a few days before the 2004 election: 'Zogby [a prominent pollster] just announced who's gonna win. Us!' ...

A press release claims the movie -- which won't be shown publicly until Thursday -- 'turns a harsh but deeply revealing mirror on the campaign ... a disorganized, contentious, self-absorbed team that thought they could win by "not making mistakes," and keeping their candidate in the public eye without clarifying a position on anything.'

"Director Rosenbaum, meanwhile, told me: "I'm a lifelong Democrat and I supported Kerry. I think people will see the film as fair, and maybe searing.'"
