Kerry is clearly planning to say that Afghanistan is the war on terror. And bringing up Tommy Franks was unwise, as Franks criticized Kerry for making a similar statement the other day. And bringing up the body armor is about to result is Bush mentioning the $87 billion, which is something you’d think Kerry would want to avoid.
perhaps Kerry is baiting Bush into mentioning the $87 billion.
Kerry would have a prime opportunity to explain his “flip-flop” on national television. Furthermore, Kerry could hammer home how those $87 billion aren’t going to the soldiers on the ground (see his parents-buying-body-armor comment).
