It Just Doesn't Go Away

Senator Kerry, in an attempt to control the damage from the SBVFT ads, sent Max Cleland and Jim Rassman to Bush's ranch to deliver a letter. In response, he received this letter.

Dear Senator Kerry,

We are pleased to welcome your campaign representatives to Texas today. We honor all our veterans, all whom have worn the uniform and served our country. We also honor the military and National Guard troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan today. We are very proud of all of them and believe they deserve our full support.

You can’t have it both ways. You can’t build your convention and much of your campaign around your service in Vietnam, and then try to say that only those veterans who agree with you have a right to speak up. There is no double standard for our right to free speech. We all earned it....

It seems that no matter what Kerry tries, this thing is just not going away. And with each new chapter, Kerry looks worse and worse. There is only one way for Kerry to make this all go away: answer all the questions, and release all the records. If not, this will continue to dog him until November, and possibly beyond.
