Bob just finished with CNN. Told them the same thing as reported above.
Ooooh. That'll leave a mark. Cue to others that actually have market share. Maybe AP will do a story.
I did vote for the man in '96, but he was as exciting as a wet mop. Where was this Bob Dole then?
"Bob just finished with CNN. Told them the same thing as reported above."
I assume the GOP has asked dole to come back into public light to discuss this kerry stuff since no one can talk about 'you weren't in vietnam' with him given his service record in wwii, and because the LOGICAL person to come out about kerry, McCain, is defending him.
I wonder if McCain's reasoning is that he doesn't want to have his words turned back on him in a future presidential bid....my understanding is that in vietnam, McCain's father was an admiral and he was apparently treated somewhat better than normal pow's as a result (obviously unlike kerry, McCain WAS a POW for a long time after he was shot down. I dont' see any real questions about his actual service. Do his back problems date from this?). Does anyone know more about this? If it is true it could certainly be used against him if he were to come out now and ask kerry to, say, sign a form 180.
