Kerry's Iraq gambit
Rich Lowry (archive)

September 20, 2004 | Print | Send

John Kerry plans to make a fall campaign push on Iraq. Since this issue has been one of his major weaknesses (quick: Describe his position in a sentence with five clauses or less), this latest new-and-improved Kerry strategy seems folly. But it is conceivable (although not likely) that Kerry can make a comeback based on Iraq. Here is why the gambit at least makes sense and how -- if he makes the right moves -- it could work for him.

NECESSITY: John Kerry will not win the election trailing President Bush by 20 points on national security. Pointing to the chaos in Iraq offers the best opportunity to dent Bush's national-security credentials.
