Be careful there. The undecideds (the moderate middle) do not follow politics, and do not have the benefit of what they said and did in the past. Based on just trust alone, ignoring their voting records, you'd think they really want to spend every waking moment thinking about ways to kill terrorists.

Don't forget also that the anti-war fringes have come to believe the lesser evil theory --- they believe in their minds Kerry-Edwards are anti war, and anti-war group probably believe Kerry is lying when he says he wants to kill terrorists. (Well not necessarily kill, but perhaps find a fitting punishment under the criminal system so that they realize the error of their ways and move on to become merely a nuisance instead of the bogeymen they are.) And they accept this --- because this is the lesser evil --- it is ok to do a small evil in order to achieve a greater good.

The anti war group will vote Kerry because they believe he is lying about the killing part. The moderate middle who did not pay attention will vote kerry because they believe he is telling the truth and will "kill terrorists". Because let's face it guys, most americans do want to kill terrorists because they get upset when they hear that hundreds of kids in schools were gunned down and of old men geting their heads sawed off with a serrated knife.

Letting the moderate middle understand who JK really is will let them make up their minds on what is the clear direction to go.

If you listen to him carefully, if you understand his true beliefs that he has hidden well, I think it is very clear on what JK will do on Iraq and WOT if elected, the public should have a chance to choose with all the facts in front of them.
