New Swiftboat Ad Hits Kerry
As Kerry starts going on the offensive against the Swift Boat Vets, here comes along an ad which will show a young Kerry accusing Vietnam vets of war crimes.
Now, he should have seen this coming. And this ad, in my estimation, will be very bad for Kerry. Far worse than the first one. Because this one go to his creidibility with people that the first one couldn't. People, if they didn't know about this phase of Kerry's life, just knew him as a war hero. Attacking a war hero's record may not be that effective.
This is why I advised Kerry not to go on the offensive against the Swift Boat Vets. They always had this as an ace in the hole.
