The Kerry Spot on National Review Online
So the “flip-flop” stuff was just entertaining background noise?
“That’s exactly right,” we were told. “Look, we know we can beat John Kerry on his liberal voting record. But that decision is made in finality by most voters during the closing days of an election. We needed to give people something to talk about for the past year while Kerry has tried to slash the President down with his vicious, negative attacks.”
This makes me so happy.

" (says the RNC consultant who doesn't want to get his butt fired for losing to Kerry---a Massachusetts liberal who ran a campaign about as badly as Dukakis at times throughout the year.)
Sounds like baloney to me. The war issue seems to dominate the debate these days. The consultants can't control the war. This isn't 2000. Reality keeps interceding.
