They questioned his war medals (Bush didn't have any to boast about); and they made fun of him for wind surfing.

We just weren't ready. He would have done better with Jon Stewart writing his comebacks to those contrived moves.

The Senator gives a great speech, but guess he will not catch a break even on a nice night.

Though agree it was a great speech. Wish people would stop blaming Senator Kerry for everything and put the blame on his handlers, Dems that sat on the sidelines, and a unfair, unbalanced media. Plus, a GOP SOS Blackwell Ohio.
