If there's a bigger weasel in contemporary American politics than John F'n Kerry, I haven't seen him yet. He said this during tonight's Democratic debate:
"Kerry criticized Bush's judgment in going to war and his failure to view it as a last resort. A decorated Vietnam veteran, Kerry drew a contrast with his own combat experience in Vietnam and Bush's decision to send men to war.Of course you do, you schmuck - you helped make it happen!
"I know what it's like when you lose the consent and the legitimacy of that war," Kerry said."
If Kerry wins -- and, at this point, I suspect he will -- I'll take solace in the fact that it wasn't Dean or Clark. They, in my opinion, would be worse.
Suspect he'll win the nomination, or win in November?
Remember, Karl Rove has not yet begun to fight.
