14. Man, did you watch the campaign?

During the primaries, people picked Kerry exactly for that reason- he had a bunch of combat medals. He's a war hero. They were trying to play it safe, and they got burned because of it.

What the hell difference would it have made if it had been Clark? They would have just brought up a bunch of Bosnia stuff and blown it out of proportion. Or talked about the fact that he actually supported the Iraq war, before being against it. Same shit, different candidate.
