45. And the Vietnam anology can only be stretched so far
We're talking about a rebuild, not a war. If Kerry offers contracts to the other nations, they'll jump in.

Surely you don't think Kerry will not remember Vietnam. And I will repeat for the second day in a row that if we end up pulling out of Iraq like we pulled out of Vietnam, we do NOT want Cheney and Rumsfeld anywhere near it. They were partly responsible for the all-out retreat before the fall of Saigon.

Whatever Kerry does, it's gotta be better than that. And he's flexible enough to change course if things get that bad. Remember: flexible, not flip-flop.
