Kerry would have at least worked through the UN to contain Iraq - much like Clinton did.

Do you have any evidence he would have done this? He voted for the war, without UN support. He voted against the 1991 Gulf War, which had UN support.

Kerry would work with our allies and partners much more - without resorting to the Bush "cowboy strategy" - of doing whatever the hell he felt like - damn our allies!

I just heard Kerry say that he supports the doctrine of preemptive war, which is the cowboy strategy in writing.

Is that enough of a difference for you?

Since you seem to be making the case that Kerry would be a more diplomatically adept imperialist, I would have to support Bush. Bush's diplomatic ineptitude has alienated many former collaberators of the American Empire.
