On a scale of 10, Bush 7, Kerry 5.

Golfer, you have a good arguement. But I see it from a different standpoint. Yes, we are in Iraq and we now HAVE to be in it for the long haul. The management of this is VERY important we have to (to bring up an old phrase) win the hearts and minds of the Islam's. This is an almost impossible task for anyone. I think Kerry's idea of allowing other nations to participate in the reconstruction is a good idea. Let the Iraqi's see it's not just America trying to muscle in and take over their homes. It could be much more diversified than it is.

Bush jumped the gun on Iraq. We should have crushed OBL before looking elsewhere. We would have had a much stronger position in the view of other nations. Now, because Bush rushed to war without a plan for reconstruction (I'm sorry 1-800-Halliburton does not count) insurgents formed war parties, recruited new members and are waging a campaign of terror by proxy. I just think there could have been a better way to handle Iraq without helping Al-Queda spread anti-americanism.

It is a very complex issue.

I was impressed by Kerry's Iran plan if sanctions didn't work which was a replica or his Iraq plan which is get together in a summit and do nothing but appear very busy.

I still wanna know how he plans to entice tens of thousands of people to join the military while at the same time saying "we're in the wrong war"

Even if he were to personally lead the way himself into combat I wouldnt follow.

A summet with who?
The very people Iran is likely to bribe as Saddam did?

If memory serves correct we already have our own sanctions on Iran.

Unfortunately they dont work very well because nobody else is supporting them.
Same direction the Iraq situation was headed.

Much to Clintons credit he didnt take the bribes France,Germany, Russia, China were taking .

I only got to see it in pieces on the internet.
Bush was better prepared then last time or does better in that kind of format.

I liked Kerry better but I doubt anyone was swayed by this one.

Yeah, ask Kerry that question and see what you get.
