This may seem to be a bit contradictory on my part, but I've always felt that Kerry's 2 biggest flaws are the fact that he did the politically expedient thing by voting for war, and that he is too liberal and not centrist enough to appeal to independent voters. Of course, those 2 points are only "contradictory" if you believe that voting against the war was a "liberal" thing to do. It was not. Ask Pat Buchanan.

I agree on all counts.
