Clinton only stayed in power because he presided over a Peace Dividend because "we have no enemies". 9-11 put the lie to that position. However, after Gore lost, the Democrats moved to the left, put Nanci Pelosi in charge of their legislative minority and secured a forthcoming victory for George W Bush. Kerry is just the personafication of that policy position. As the party of unilateral disarmament, Kerry must be against this war, as he is against all wars. If he had a gun and was standing in front of Osama Bin Ladden, what would he do? He wouldn't shoot. He would bring him in to justice. After all, we should hear his side of the story. This is why Kerry and the Democrats will lose.
