A Man for all Shifts in the Wind

Check out the Ultimate John Kerry ad. I actually think some of his apparent flip-flops and apparent issue straddling is justifiable. I don't agree with most of it, but it can be justified. You can argue that Saddam needed to be dealt with, and still regard the invasion as stupid. You can regard the invasion as stupid, and still think that abandoning Iraq given what's happened so far would be foolish. I only agree with the position that invading was stupid, but the other positions aren't necessarily contradictory. Kerry is just unable to actually articulate why they are consistent and/or right. He came close in the debate at times, but he needs to be even better in the future.
