Reply #66: No, I am saying the "demand" was presented in a low key, velvet glove,

[hansolsen]

but it clearly was a demand, by my reading. Go see for yourself.

In any case it is really an opportunity. Right now Bush is ahead by 2 to 1 on who can handle Iraq and terrorism the best. Some advisors want Kerry to capitulate on Iraq and move to discussing the economy and domestic issues.

I say the way to win this election is to make the American people really believe Kerry will make a difference. He hasn't accomplished that yet.

Woodward is offering Kerry one more platform to make his case. Isay, take him up on it.
