35. Where's the opposition party?
Of all the really terrible things Bush has done, none is worse than the Iraq war. That means that is where he is most vulnerable, and Kerry could use that to his advantage.

Why does Kerry feel the need to support this insanity? I really wish him well and will work to get him elected, but there are millions of Americans who think the Iraq war was and is a big mistake. So why not tap in on this? I'm baffled.

Also, what about the 50% of people that did not vote in 2000? What incentive is there for these people to vote this time when, at least on foreign policy, Bush and Kerry are in agreement in principle?
