THE BOOS THAT ROCKED THE VOTE: KERRY DAUGHTERS RECEIVE RUDE AWAKENING
AT MTV AWARDS

MTV, ROLLING STONE and the rock and roll establishment -- past and
present -- have cast their vote, and their man is John Kerry.

So on Sunday night when John Kerry's daughters were announced to speak
at the annual MTV VIDEO MUSIC AWARDS, the MTV youth were expected to
welcome his daughter's as pop culture princesses.

Instead, in an era of the unexpected, the daughters of the Democratic
candidate were met with cheers -- AND JEERS -- during the live
broadcast in Miami.

From the moment Alexandra and Vanessa started speaking, the boos
outweighed anything close to cheers, and the reaction turned worse
when the daughters asked the VIACOM youth to vote for their father. So
shocked by the reaction, the taller of the two daughters tried to
'shhhhhh' her peers to no avail.
