Did Kerry actually take one for the rest of the team?

Drawing the fire for the rest of the Dems?

Because I don't see this as the gaffe some are making it out to be.

1. Iraq is back front and center

or rather the botched job of the republican congress

[ginnyinWI]

2. He's modeling "Fighting Dem" for the rest of them. n/t

3. I'm beginning to think that he did.

He may just have pulled "reverse Rove" to get the topic back on Iraq. If the topic is Iraq, they LOSE. He needs to take Raisinbrain on right now. Respond and smack him down hard. No mercy. Take no prisoners.

4. thats my take

5. I don't think he planned this, but for sure he can now talk Iraq until Nov 7.

Republicans don't want to talk about Iraq.
