Well, I could be wrong, but I kinda think looking into men's souls was what Sam Johnson was talking about in that quote, so I really hope you succeed -before Nov-and that you share it with us. I just heard on tv that Kerry arrived somewhere on a boat again...I like him less and less everytime he conjures up that Vietnam image. One of my sons graduated from Rice last year and when he was preparing resumes, I asked, why did you leave off being Sec Gen of the Metroplex Model United Nations for two years in high school (which I think would be terribly impressive as a leadership qualification). He rolled his eyes and said, Mom, no one cares what I did that long ago. I wish Kerry would figure that out.

The answer is yes. Kerry's habitual flip-flop voting strategy demonstrates that he's afraid to make firm decisions. His criteria for decision making is always "could it create negative political feedback for me." Hence, his straddle yes first vote--no second time. That presidential attitude would spell disaster for Americans.

Does kerry give al quaeda a two year window that could spell disaster kerry answered that question at the DNC. He stated he opposed the bush (pre-emption) Doctrine but would counter-attack strongly. What the hell does that mean? It means to me that, like under clinton, we wait for the attack and then decide what action the US should take. That is also the Pat Buchanan strategy. Isolationist thinking. Perhaps why Buchanan thought kerry's speech was good. Myself, I will go with preemption any day.
