Reply #42: Bush is the worst President in my lifetime.

But I think Kerry will have to spend much more time playing defense. Edwards will be able to spend more time on offense.

What Republicans have learned to do is play dirty, by unleashing their attack dogs to do the dirty work and letting George Bush be the face of hope and optimism. Unfortunately, Kerry is all too willing to engage in the dirty work himself. He recently described Bush's policy team as "almost stupid" and "completely inept." That let's Bush off the hook for his terrible policies and allows Republicans to dismiss Kerry's charges as politics as usual.

We need to focus our campaign on what we will do for the country. that's how Clinton beat back Dole's and Bush 1's attacks.
