is the strategy?  He can claim to me noble and idealistic, above the dirty
politics of the Swift Boat ads, while still gaining the benefit of the
damage to Kerry being done by these ads.

and they are hurting Kerry among many voters.  This attack against Kerry's
military image will continue till election day, because the Republicans know
Bush is vulnerable on this issue, and it is a potential strong point for
Kerry, unless they can tarnish his military hero image.

claims, and this can swing the election to Bush.
