>>Democrat-for-president John Kerry is mired in his own heritage. The last memorable thing he did was to protest the Vietnam War. In his only memorable distinctive presentation to the U.S. Senate, he accused U.S. soldiers of atrocities in Vietnam.

Even if you can put these positions into perspective, which I do, you can’t get away from the inescapable fact: Since then the Kerry record has been a big vacuum, leaving little else for him to discuss beyond those long-ago Vietnam activities.

Look at it this way. Even if he had a sterling war record, as did Sen. John McCain, for instance, that would not be enough to commend him for president. A person who has served in public office throughout his adult lifetime and wants to be president should have something more on display.

This very lack, more than anything particularly negative since the Vietnam issue, is Kerry’s greatest burden. He is a pig in a poke. By the time of the final accounting this November, voters are not likely to pick such an unknown to lead the country in time of war.<<

Could be mined for good ad ideas.

Has Kerry ever cast a vote in the Senate such as:
Kerry's vote would decide, likely passage in the House,
a tricky bipartisan dividing issue, where Kerry was torn in both directions??? ( I don't know), but
I would think not. I doubt that Kerry has ever cast a tough vote.
.
Kerry is the kneejerk liberal. His staff is inexperienced in
fighting in the general election. Kerry always enjoyed
100 percent friendly press coverage, till now.
Kerry needs , but doesn't seem to have, something
equivalent to Clinton's 'Bimbo eruption team'.
