“When I talked about the $87 billion, I made a mistake in how I talked about the war, but the President made a mistake in invading Iraq,which is worse? “–that’s the best Kerry could do to explain the $87 billion after having all that time to plan?
Ok, I will grant, that the vote issue is small compared to the war itself, but surely the Kerry team could have come up with a way to make the $87 billion into an opportunity–or, at least, a way to say that it wasn’t a flip-flop–that answer was a dodge–which doesn’t help his case.
