For women, racial minorities, GLBT people, etc.

Kerry is honest -- when he says something, I believe him.

I think the IWR vote was a lapse of judgment, not a dishonest thing. While it did contribute towards moving me to support another candidate, I think people who attribute his stance to cynical politics are giving him short shrift.

I also think we need Kerry to fight in the Senate, and that he'd make a much better Senate Dem leader than Daschle by far!
