the evening television news (and his constant efforts to be seen with
military personnel behind him wherever he speaks).

Kerry offered his service as a feature of the DNC. However, I don't see
that, his Vietnam service, anywhere on his web site or elsewhere as the
centerpiece of his campaign.

So you don't agree with his Senate record either. Certainly no real
