"I have to quibble with this statement..." You should more than quibble with that statement. A draw would have been fine for Kerry. What he needed to do is come off as decisive, realistic and straight forward. He badly needed to counter the spin that Bush and his merry band of pirates have been putting on Kerry's image. He managed to do that. While there were some things he mis-stated, they were relatively minor. I wish he would dump the #200 billion claim for the war, to defend that number takes some handwaving and it isn't a whole lot worse than the real number of $120 billion that was supposed to be a whole lot less. I wish he had pushed the issue that the version of the $87 billion appropriation he voted for would have provided more health care for the military and been at least partially paid for, but Bush had vowed to veto that one out of hand if it passed. The only version Bush had indicated he would sign was the version that provided less care for the troops and was totally unfunded. If it was so important to support the troops, why was Bush so dogmatic about which version was allowed? Either should have been fine...
