7. Frankly, Kerry is far better when angry than Clinton here
- Remember Kerry's absolute slam of Senator Allard. He threw the Senate rukes at him, then challanged both parts of Allard's claim - that Bush made good decisions on Iraq and that Kerry was playing politics (being against the war.)

Remember in the week before the election - when Kerry went after Bush for sending troops to Bagdad to secure the oil ministry building, but failing to secure the ammo dumps - that the US knew the location of and which had been guarded by the IEAE (UN inspectors- not sure of initials) before the war and which were being turned into IEDs that were killing "our kids."

In either example (or the 1971 statement), Kerry remained perfectly in control and focused, listing fact after fact after fact. (I've argued with people who blow up and I;ve argued with people who remain in control - frankly the latter is very hard to beat - and they come off looking better than you.
