68. The issue with Senators
is that they have no leadership experience and that is what Americans are looking for. A Governor can say he/she has x amount of experience leading a state while his esteemed opponent has spent x amount of time doing what?


Really, it is how you package the candidate. It almost worked for Kerry. He was one press conference away from the Presidency. As soon as the SBV story hit, he should have held a press conference and slammed them. The campaign wanted to use Vietnam as his leadership experience and rather than slam the SBV stories as lies, they chose to wish it away.
