wounded Kerry presidency would, on the whole, be superior to one in which he was able to wield power without reservation.


A Kerry presidency will be wounded from the get-go, regardless. Just look at his supporters. Half of them are the Howard Dean camp, who want him to reverse all of Bush's policies, ASAP. The other half are the Andrew Sullivan camp who have talked themselves into delusions that Kerry will be forced to continue Bush's policies, but in a more diplomatic and successful manner. On top of that you have Kerry's own track record of prolonged data gathering and procrastination on important decisions - and this assessment comes from his supporters!

imo, this is a formula for paralysis, as no policy could satisfy both these camps, and Kerry will be getting rolled first one way, then another, by his many advisors.
