Actually, Clinton called himself out when he gave his speech a few days ago on Vietnam.

Best speech Kerry has given. I've never seen him sweat before, he gave it his all! I think he has almost got this thing in the bag.

yeah...I thought that was good of him actually.

Kerry didn't call out Bush directly did he?

Altho I must say, if Kerry is the kind of person that risked his life to save someone else in the war, then he seems someone fit to lead a country. I don't know if its true that he did risk his life to save his fellow soldier..but if he did...I applaud him.

I liked the issues he discussed but he didnt mention any plan on how to apply those changes.

On the CNN feed you can hear some guy say What the F*** are you guys doing, more balloons in the background.

At least Kerry can speak well. He doesn't jumble words or look like a deer caught in the teleprompter.

Funny how Kerry told everyone that military experience didn't matter when Clinton was running against Bush I. Guess we'll just mark that down as flip-flop 19481084.

He received a Silver Star, Bronze Star with Combat V, and three awards of the Purple Heart for his service in combat and risking his life to save other Americans in Vietnam.

It is true: Kerry went into the middle of fire, bullets flying everywhere and pulled one of his boatmates out of the water who (I think) was hit. The guy spoke tonight.

Dude his Military career is a joke so Is the Presidents so what. Military folk will vote for Bush 10 to 1 easy.

I didn't watch any of this one and I won't watch the GOP's either I think. both are infomercials full of half truths, angles and lies.

I want to laugh anytime a politician says healthcare. Especially Edwards He's a freaking Trial Lawyer! He is the reason why doctors pay 100K a year and more for insurance. No Tort reform with Edwards!

I didn't give my opinion on his speach. :roll: I'm Sure Bush's will be the same BS too. No different really it's a high school pep rally on steroids.

"As best as he could have done"

It means if he was an Amway salesman he'd be poor. He's Stiff Edwards owns him

I have no problem with Edwards owning Kerry as long as Kerry owns Bush.
Edwards with VP experience = Al Gore + charisma, bad news for Republicans.
