Kerry was probably smart not to release all his records to the rightwing. Bush was not releasing his records. It's be like throwing red meat to sharks. They would have twisted every nuance, and the campaign would have turned into a form 180 show. That's why neither candidate made a full disclosure.

>>Here's a Joan Vennochi column from the Globe on the Kerry/Form 180 issue. Joan Vennochi, btw is not at all Republican or right-wing on most issues:<< Nadine - So the Boston Globe is a "friendly" paper to John Kerry? With friends like that ... Seems to me that the Globe is trying to present all sides of the story. I agree that Kerry doesn't seem extremely interested in having his complete record in the public domain. If you want to believe that proves something, go ahead. What do I know? There may be something embarrassing in there. I think Kerry has been in politics too long, and is just not able to speak plainly. That doesn't make him a liar, in my book. It does make him someone I would not like to see nominated on the Democratic ticket again. By the way, I think a much more relevant topic, in today's world, would be all the lying, hedging, fudging and rewriting of history that the current administration has engaged in, to the enormous detriment of this country. Keeping the focus on the defeated opposition candidate from 2004 is exactly what Karl Rove would like to do. - Allen
