Just trying to see what will stick... totally the wrong track... This election is a referendum on the last four years of Bush... not what happened 35 years ago,
BUT FOR KERRY, being an unknown, it is about his entire past.
The point is that Kerry is not an unknown to a large part of the population, the Vietnam Vets and their families. We remember him very clearly. The only part of Kerry's past record that no one knows about is his legislative record, because it doesn't amount to much and he has basicly taken both sides of every issue.
