During an NPR interview...Mr. Kerry stubbornly refused to say what he would do as president, on the ground that "I can't hypothesize as to what I am going to find on Jan. 20." So we should just 'trust' him, right?
On being better equipped to handle diplomacy, here are some examples of how he and his campaign have 'handled' our allies: Last week he all but called Iraq's Prime Minister Ayad Allawi a liar, and a Kerry aide described Mr. Allawi as "a puppet of the United States." And Diane Kerry, the candidate's sister and chief campaigner for expat votes, told a newspaper in Australia that terrorists have targeted that country because it "has kept faith with the U.S."
And finally, this promise: "I believe as a new president, with new credibility, with a fresh start, that I have the ability to be able to change the dynamics on the ground." Thus voters are left to decide if Mr. Kerry's personality alone is winning enough to win in Iraq. I don't see it.
