Kerry as of today might be in a world of hurt after his going on
national television within 30 minutes of PM Allawi addressing a joint
session of congress to huge bipartisan applause and standing ovation at
times. This man has literally taken his life in his hands to step up to
the plate in Iraq.

I have to check CSPAN tonight, apparently Allawi and Lieberman
were embracing each other warmly, and kissing each other as is the
common Eastern custom among friends. Certainly quite a moment for the
Arab Street.

I agree, JFK should have waited a day before addressing any of
this. Appearing reactive is not a help to him.

Kerry presented a HUGE contrast to the mood that was displayed in
congress this morning. I am far from being a professional psychologist,
but I honestly believe that their is a limit for all American non
decided voters for Kerry's constant projection of negativity.

Key also because it's an unconscious reaction, and therefore
highly persuasive to the individual. Frowns and furrowed brows are
more potent than people think.
