Kerry...is the guy standing off on the sidelines second-guessing the person who is in the heat of battle making decisions and suffering the consequences.

"It's not the critic who counts.....It's not the man who points out
how the strong man stumbled.....Credit belongs to the man who
really was in the arena, his face marred by dust, sweat and blood,
who strives valiantly, who errs to come short and short again,
because there is no effort without error and shortcoming.
It is the man who actually strives to do the deeds,
who knows the great enthusiasm and knows the great devotion,
who spends himself on a worthy cause, who, at best, knows in the end
the triumph of great achievement. And who, at worst, if he fails,
at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be
with those cold and cruel souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
~ Teddy Roosevelt
