The Perils of Honesty
Kerry made a HUGE mistake last night when he said "Globalization can't be cured by me or anyone else elected President. I tell workers I can't stop outsourcing."
The only chance Kerry has in Ohio, which he needs, is to get people who've lost jobs and fear losing jobs to vote for him. Admitting neither he nor Bush can fix that issue leaves him with nothing to sell. Ohio is conservative. If Kerry's got no job plan for them, they'll vote for the social conservative. He should have pandered to the protectionists in Ohio and elsewhere. Leave Bush to make the academic rebuttal about how we can't be protectionist in a global economy to a bunch of manufacturing worrkers.
