KERRY: "When we dedicated swift boat one in '92, I said to all the swift guys that I wasn't talking about the swifties, I was talking about all the rest of the veterans."

That one's going to my dad.

"That one's going to my dad."


The remark by Kerry about "all the rest of the veterans" may end up being ranked with Nixon's statement in the 1960 campaign, I can't give exact context but the foot in mouth moment went something like,"it is not the(some number)of people there, they are not that important", if Nixon had not made that one statement he would almost certainly have been elected in 1960 instead of eight years later.
