I don't know if Kerry can win, but he'll put up one hell of a fight. He has Chris Lehane on his team, and he's every bit as meanspirited as Rove. My biggest problem with Kerry v. Bush is that it will be a really ugle campaign. Kerry won Iowa in part due to some of Lehane's work and we all ready know Rove and his dirty tricks.
Lieberman is a good guy and a solid Dem, but he just can't win. That debate with Cheney in 2000 sealed it for me. He's such a nice guy and so polite that he couldn't fight. I dreaded the idea of a campaign full of "I agree with Bush" debates. I'd love to have the guy over for dinner, and he might make a good President, but he could never beat Bush in an election.
Cam: As to Bush's Vietnam record, I agree that it gets overplayed by some, but we do know for a fact that Bush missed scheduled callup times when he was in the Guard. My guess is if Kerry did the same thing a lot of Bush defenders would be all over it.
