I'm not up on "right-wing talking points", but I'll tell you what I think... Kerry looked like a spoiled brat who wanted to be able to say he was President one day, he seemed like a wuss who would have cowed to any threat, and therefore attracted threats like flys to honey..... Kerry seemed to change his story quite often too...

No doubt many negative things can be found about every candidate, but these perceptions are the ones which stuck with me, and I hear perception is reality these days..........

AND, I cut and pasted almost every word, so it was easy....<grin>
