July 29, 2004The RestorationThe Washington Post has an analysis arguing that Kerry is running not as a change agent, but for the return to the (successful) past of the 1990's. That should work for domestic issues, as long as he can convince voters he can handle the national security issues. Posted by rickheller at July 29, 2004 03:33 PMComments
But will John Kerry be willing or able to govern from the center I doubt if he has the political skills that Clinton had and I doubt if he is willing to so compromise his liberal convictions Posted by: tallan at July 29, 2004 04:03 PMOf course running from that platform doesn't mean he has any intention of governing that way once he wins. And it's all about winning. Posted by: Tully at July 29, 2004 04:36 PMThat's why I hope Kerry wins, but one branch of Congress, preferably the Senate, stays Republican. He'll have to be centrist.

Posted by: Ed Von Ruden at July 29, 2004 06:41 PMSorta with you on that, Rick. I like divided government. Not sure that's the way I'd want it divided, but I want it divided. One-party rule quickly sucks, and I don't care which party it is. Posted by: Tully at July 30, 2004 12:24 AM |
