"Problem may be in the selection process " It is how it is started, what is now called the "money primary". Don't think the other side will agree to a mulligan at this point, unfortunately.

I appreciate what you are saying Michael, but it is very difficult to support a presidential candidate who actually voted for military support in Iraq before he voted against it. I don't have a problem with people that don't support the war......that is there prerogative, but Kerry has flipped from not supporting the war to now supporting the war in Iraq. He made excuses about his original vote to support the President and now wants us to believe that he really does support the president. I think his new found support is a political ploy. He saw the polls and understands that a majority of Americans support our effort in Iraq and he knows it would be political suicide if he didn't try to appeal to that base. And he also wants us to believe that he will be able to go to the UN and immediately obtain the military and financial support of France, Germany and other Euro nations that haven't supported America and the coalition up to this point. Even though President Bush went to the UN to ask for support and we all know that no matter what, France will never support the US in Iraq. He still says that Iraq has nothing to do with terrorism, but if you look, the evidence proves otherwise. In reality, he doesn't know any more about the hundreds or maybe even thousands of terrorists cells that are spread around the world, but it seems that he, and some in his party, blame the US for the fact that those cells exist. I'm not even going to go into the Winter Soldier testimony. Kerry is disingenuous, wishy washy and insincere. Not presidential material. M
