Every one of those statements somehow involves weapons of mass destruction, and we all know what happened with that. I don't see how that hurts Kerry.

He is saying that Saddam has WMD. Now he's saying they never had them. If Bush lied about these weapons then so did John Kerry!

Maybe Kerry was basing his opinions out of his trust for the president and agencies of his administration (CIA) when they said Iraq had WMD. If Bush was not lying, then somebody in one of these agencies failed. And if so, we should find out why.

btw Richardson said no. I guess that improves Bayh's chances by 10%. But consider Kghadial is from Indiana and still doesn't think Bayh is ready... well thats saying something.





Which one is Bayh and which one is Maryland Gov. Bob Ehrlich?

Kerry is the NE liberal and a veteran, it wouldn't make sense to balance the ticket out with Clark or somebody too similar to him.

Clark is from Arkansas, and he supported Reagan, so he's not that similiar. But yes I don't know much about Bayh, I could easily support him if I knew more, and Kerry's tax position is to keep most of the Bush tax cuts.

You will lose.  This is a losers strategy.  You know it.

Yeah you're correct. I think Bush = bad, so the Bush-lite strategy = worse. The only reason Kerry supports parts of the cuts is because they'll be phased out in a matter of years anyways, whereas Bush would pander to the corporate lobby even if it meant $10 trillion in debt. We should improve our own finances first.
