Kerry can call this administration the most economically irresponsible since Hoover, the most secretive since Nixon, and the most corrupt since Harding.
Kerry can liken the Halliburton deals to the Teapot Dome scandal (which involved illegal no-bid contracts, to boot), saying that, just as Harding was completely unaware of his cabinet's corruption, Bush is ignorant of the problems of his own. This would put Kerry in the same position as you wrote above: he will create the image in the voters' minds that, while Bush may be a nice guy (:puke:), he just doesn't have the competence to handle his own Cabinet, let alone Iraq.
I'm sure there are plenty of Bush voters who would accept that he's out of his element, even if he is such a nice, down home guy.
