>>If he could just have waved his hand and admitted, well maybe I improved the story a little bit, but that's how I remember it, then it would have been no biggie.

But now, as Joan Vennochi points out, the credibility gap is on the table because Kerry puts it there.<<

Nadine -

Once again, I agree. Kerry is basically forcing everyone to reexamine all these old accusations. Whenever he tries to explain himself, he just makes it worse.

Note that I am NOT saying that I believe the accusations made against him. I am only observing that he does a poor job of defending himself.

I think Bush has a similar problem. The man seems to lack the ability to admit to a mistake, or even to recognize that he has made one. Like when he was asked to name three mistakes he had made in his first term, and he couldn't think of even one.
