I found via the search on DU2 for the BH link. It is startling how accurate Kerry was in mid 2006. (and that was when even George Will was saying that "Kerry was right" as far as his 2004 definition of how the war on terror should be mostly international law enforcement and intelligence and only occasionally limited military effort - after the British used those methods to prevent the bombing of planes to the US.)

I was amused that the BH eliminated that anti-Romney hit. I wonder what else they eliminated.

TayTay really captured Romney well. I have to admit that it wasn't until weeks of hearing Romney's phoney attempt to sound sincere that I truly get why she and others in Massachusetts really grew to strongly dislike or hate him. Though when he panders saying things he likely does not believe, his eyes seem almost wild - darting quickly back and forth. He really seems edgy when challenged and very thin skinned. That will be interesting in debates with the cool, genuine Obama. (It's like in 2006 - I hoped that JK would be the candidate against McCain. At that point, I thought McCain would be stronger than he was - more like he was in 2000. Had that been the case, Kerry would have been the strongest against him - both because of his knowledge on everything and his ability to not get angry.)
