Clinton's people scuttling Kerry's campaign?

Something is going on... When you want power in a democracy, then you try and put your politics in the center, where compromise is possible, so people who in the past have voted for the "other party/guy" do not have to commit "high treason" to their values, if they should vote for you. Placing yourself too far right or too far left is very high risk, since it makes it alot more easy for opponents/media etc. to label you and to do character killing on you.

Ex. on Iraq, instead of debating "why are we in Iraq", then Kerry should use the "what can we do to make things better in Iraq" - no matter if you are for or against the war in Iraq, then you want the situation to get better - it opens for compromise, and it also shows a leader who has a plan.

The "Michael Moore" way to debate (with focus on all the negative) - will only lead to confrontation... something which works for Michael Moore, because he sells tickets to his movies, but it will not work for a man who seeks to become President of a democratic nation... Once you are President, then you are everybody's President, no matter what their view on life is.
