The Democrats have nothing to stand on, whether we throw quotes they made in 2002 or simply ignore them. The United Nations gave the US the authority to go after Iraq with force back in 1998. I can't recall the resolution, it was put in place for the UN to enforce the sanctions against Iraq, and if Iraq didn't abide by the resolution, the US Administration was already given the green light to go after Saddam. This happend BEFORE the 4 day bombing in Iraq. That and the fact Clinton was a Democrat are why the Democrats were for the use of force, and it was a "wag the dog" fiasco during the Lewinsky scandal.

none of these things you mention means anything to the typical american "moderate" voter who will decide the 2004 election. that's not to say they will decide the election on this WMD issue, but it will not cut in Bush's favor if we fail to find the WMD material or produce a coherent story about where it COULD be. right now, none of that is being done. its just a mixed up bag of quotes, and NPR interviews, and denials, and clinton-like statements that need to be parsed, and a daily barrage from the Democratic campaign that goes uncontested.
