Voters have cared little about campaign finance reform - or it's passage; so why would 'special interests' resonate as a campaign issue? It runs a flatline in my book.
Better they used the money to point out that while they appreciate Kerry the 'war hero' in Vietnam; they do not honor the anti-war heroics of JK upon his return home.
. . .or point out the hypocrisy of his record. . .his pro -Military talk vs his record of ever voting to support our Military financially.
Best would have been to challenge his views on 'TERRORISM'. . .the kind that sacrificed innocent people as a weapons of mass destruction to explode thousands more innocent people who were working than September morning, not too long ago.
. . .Kerry thinks it a 'law enforcement issue' ala Clinton. . .we know what the terrorists thought of that, for sure.
But the RNC did not go there; and no sense asking 'why not'.
Maybe saving it for a 'better day'.
