Exactly, Kerry's mistake was trusting Bush. Wont happen again. But I can also give you a little inside info. 15 months ago, Kerry told a smal group of us that his sources told him Bushies were going to war no matter what. No matter who supported them. They were going to dare the congress and the UN to stop them, then do it anyway. Kerry had mixed feelings about the war powers, but did feel Saddam needed to be taken down, at least at some point in the future. Therefore he was on the fence, but decided to give Bush the benefit of the doubt, partly because it was so soon after 9-11 and Americans needed to stick together. Yes of course he also needed to be strong on defense so three was politics involved. When Kerry voted he gave a speech saying that his support was conditional upon war only as a last resort after exhaustive, diplomacy, inspections, coalition building and a post-invasion peace plan. Bush had promised these things and Kerry said he would hold Bush's feet to the fire if he broke his promises.
