Puts him in the same light as Bush. Both actively sought "safe" slots. What Kerry chose was a safe slot, marginally less safe than Bush's, but not that much, plus he got a shorter time in exchange for the margin. It was only bad luck that changed his slot with no warning, and put him inside the borders.
