" Dean has blamed his Iowa loss on negative
attacks that he suffered as a one-time
front-runner in the race. He said Saturday
that he would not start attacking Kerry in an
effort to bring him down.

But he did point out that he and Kerry had
taken different positions on both wars
against Iraq . Dean
supported the invasion under the first
President Bush while
Kerry voted against it. Dean opposed the
invasion of Iraq last year while Kerry voted
for the resolution authorizing the U.S.-led
war.

"Here is a gentleman who's running, who
votes no in 1991 when there are troops in Kuwait and the oil fields are on
fire, and then votes yes and there turns out not to be a threat," Dean
said. "I would be deeply concerned about that kind of judgment in the
White House. His voting record on Iraq is exactly the opposite of mine,
and I think my position has proven to be right twice."

Asked Saturday for specifics about the negative attacks, Dean pointed
to a book distributed by North Carolina Sen. John Edwards' campaign
that instructed supporters how to attack other candidates during the
caucuses. For example, it told campaign captains in Iowa to describe
Dean as an "elitist from Park Avenue in New York City."
