Like Cuba, which we haven't invaded since the Bay of Pigs. Or Sudan.

Put aside the substantive question of whether we should have gone. He said a month ago that knowing what he know knows he still would have voted for the war. What does Kerry think his vote authorizing war means? Does he mean that he gets to hedge on the outcome - meaning that if it goes well he can say he voted for it, and if it goes less than well, he can say that what he's currently saying this week?
This is why he is losing. Someone should force him to answer the question as to what he would have done if he were president at the time, no just how he would have voted.
