Consider the implications of Katie's opening question to McAuliffe: "How much does Kerry's early support for the war in Iraq hamstring his ability to criticize it now?"

Sounnds like a legtimate question to me

I disagree. A fair question would have been "doesn't Kerry's early support for the Iraq resolution make later criticism look like pure politics?"

Her question, worrying about him being "hamstrung" sounds more like the concern of a supporter. Why should objective reporters worry about politicians being "hamstrung"?
