Navy regulation to get out with 3 purple hearts. Also, his "US soldiers raped, murdered, cut off ears" 1971 Senate testimony. He won Iowa by dragging out Jim Rassemann and playing on his Vietnam War record. Did Kerry do 1000 times more than Chimp during the Vietnam war? Sure. But when he made that the centerpiece of his campaign, he promised more than he could deliver.
But the main thing was his inability to make his positions on issues known to the public-- the biggest one being the IW. He intentionally played both sides of issues. He also said many stupid things during the campaign. I expected more from someone with 20 years of political experience. I was wrong.
