Do you think Kerry would take out the bomb making facility and do the necessary followup?


I don't know. Perhaps. There's plenty of precedent for surgical strikes on that side of the aisle if he's so inclined. No reason to think he's so inclined, but no reason to rule it out, either.

In general, Bill, if you'll pardon the abstraction, if we have to choose between unattractive theoretical extremes, I'd rather risk doing nothing than risk doing something rash. We know, at least I know, that Bush is predisposed to "rash" although perhaps less so now than he once was. We suspect that Kerry is predisposed to "nothing." Hard to estimate what he might actually do since he has no track record but I think it's pretty safe to say it wouldn't be "rash."
