Reply #10: This could be very bad for Kerry. [View All]

He has 32 years of votes and interviews and speeches and positions he's taken. I am sure there will be plenty of material for Rove. On the other hand, Bush has spent most of the last 32 years as the playboy of the western world. I think the Kerry campaign has to do two things:

Never be defensive! Kerry is not at his best when he is being defensive...he begins to parse his words and talk like a lawyer. He needs to respond by saying..."yes, that was my vote and it was my best judgment at the time and x number of Repubs votes the same way."

Go after the Bush team...these guys all have nasty histories. Going after Bush won't be good enough because he's as light as ashes and that was tried, and obviously failed, in the 2000 Campaign.
