Kerry has intensely selective memories, and those limited memories are befuddled by a psychotic fantasies (i.e. really believing he was Martin Sheen in Apocalypse Now)
It was hardly necessary to mention Kerry's name.
Just ask: which candidate best fits these criteria?

"Seared"
When Kerry discovered that a nice reasonably safe open
water "PT" boat assignment had turned into an extremely
dangerous river missions (SEALORD), that got his full
attention.
Perhaps for the first and only time in his life, matters
were far from entirely under his control. You can bet he
fixates on that.
Now for the second time, matters are again out of his
control (the election results), and it will be
fascinating to watch how he handles it.
