he alleged flip flopping took place over a period of 13 years.

Not really. More like 4. He first expressed one opinion about 13 years before expressing the opposite, but he voted in support of the original opinion 4 years before condemning Bush about it. If your going to condemn your opponent for something you voted for, and you don't want to be condemning for flip-flopping you should at least acknowledge your original position and tell everyone why you changed your mind. Even then it would seem inappropriate of place to openly condemn someone for supporting the same policy you voted for unless you apologize for having supported the policy that you now think should be condemned.

That having been said I'll repeat what I said earlier.

I do think the Kerry's flip-flops have been exaggerated by many on the right. That's the nature of the political process. One side will always exaggerate the negatives of the other side. But there is a reality there to exaggerate.
