If he could do both, we'd be better off. But Kerry is a no-show on the vision thing, and, at best, a "maybe" on leaving tactical decisions up to the Generals.

If Bush had that "vision" thing down, he wouldn't have us bogged down in Iraq right now. He invaded Iraw as a smokescreen to cover the fat that he failed in one of his main objectives in Afghanistan. OBL is still out there and so is a large part of his leadership team. Meanwhile, in Iraq, Bush is recruiting new terrorists every day.
