134. Kerry, it was reported on 60 Minutes, promised the people of Nevada

that Yucca Mountain would not go forward under his administration.

1. He took a definite stand.

2. There are many people invested in this Yucca Mountain thing, including RR workers, truck drivers, etc.

3. Kerry is taking a risk of losing votes by turning off the centrist, blue-collar workers involved.

So, if Kerry can take this risk, why can't he take other risks? Or, did he make a mistake in speaking clearly and definitively?

Maybe a smaller demographic, but he still wants to win Nevada, right?
