It seems ages ago since John Kerry uttered those infamous words: “I actually did vote for the $87 billion, before I voted against it.” That quote planted the seed: John Kerry will say anything to get elected. Since then, on nearly every issue, it’s been impossible to get a direct answer from the Senator without the burden of qualifiers and escape clauses.
The third Presidential debate crystallized theory into fact when Kerry intermingled the personal and the political by intentionally naming Mary Cheney in response to a question on gay marriage. But instead of apologizing and moving on, the Kerry campaign seemed intent on solidifying the image that Kerry will say anything to gain the Presidency:
In the past week or so, we’ve seen Team Kerry go after Mary Cheney; the candidate himself charge that Bush is going to bring back the draft; the citing of a disputed New York Times quote to allege that Bush is going to privatize Social Security; Kerry assert that if you get the flu this winter it’s George W. Bush’s fault; and that George W. Bush is lying when he says he wants the generals in the field to get what they need. (From the man who voted against the $87 billion!) What is this a sign of? Not a confident and aggressive campaign, but a desperate and flailing campaign.Don’t forget that if we vote for Kerry, the lame will get up from their wheelchairs and walk. What outlandish charge or promise will John Kerry make next? More critically, can anybody believe a word he says? On this matter, David Brooks was spot-on today:
So nobody could imagine how incompetent, crude and over-the-top Kerry has been in this final phase of the campaign. At this point, smart candidates are launching attacks that play up the doubts voters already have about their opponents. Incredibly, Kerry is launching attacks that play up doubts voters have about him. Over the past few days, he has underscored the feeling that he will say or do anything to further his career.Kerry is not to be trusted.
