Bush really needs to make his ultra liberal voting record a bigger issue. Lee Atwater would already have this guy sinking by now. Here is a man who is to the left of Ted Kennedy. I think in the last six weeks of the election they should start running comical adds on his record. I think it would really work in these critical swing states.

Kerry said there should be no confusion: He and vice presidential running mate John Edwards are "very much moderate."

Good post! But I'm surprised they left out Kerry's voting record on the marriage penalty tax.

This issue more then any other doomed Romney's opponent in the last election. She came out with pretty much the same stance as Kerry on the issue and dropped immediately in the polls.

Talking to various moderates I know, this was a deciding factor.

But then I've been saying it for a while. Kerry isn't just a leftwinger...he is the most leftwing candidate to ever win a major party nomination for president in American history...
