Dukakis did not have a chest full of medals in an election year with a war on.

No, but McGovern did.

I was not alive at the time? I know he lost but I have no knowledge of the McGovern campaign beynd teh fact that he had some looney wealth give away program? What was his position on Vietnam? Kerry voted for the war and is not saying we should not have fought the war only that Bush has fought it badly. Was that what McGovern was saying or was he for giving up and leaving Vietnam? Kerry said he would internationalize the Iraq occupation (whatever that means) and stay on.
