You know, Rush said today that if this is the Democrats' line of attack, it is laughable. It'll never work, Americans aren't going to buy it...the time to raise the issue was 2000, some tried and FAILED to make G.W. look like a deserter, and it really looks good for Bush if this is the best they've got.

I think Rush is right, but for a slightly different reason. Many Americans, especially those who have never served, don't know the difference between a "civilian" and a "veteran." The mere appearance of Bush in the flight suit and the Army jacket at Thanksgiving makes him look FAR more "military" than any number of references to John Kerry's old (and, I'm sure, well-deserved) medals. Those old medals---valor of byegone days---didn't do George H. W. Bush a bit of good vs. Clinton, and won't do Kerry or Clark a bit of good against a guy viewed as a "soldier's soldier," G.W.
