But to win, Kerry has to fully expose the fraud the president has perpetrated on a scared American public whose fears he keeps fanning.

He has to convince Americans that their president's false bravado is foolish and dangerous and has already led to historic mistakes.

Kerry also needs to say, as he has on the campaign trail, that Bush is using the war on terror as a political tool and a weapon for re-election.

The president unveiled a new and dangerous version of that during the debate, arguing that Kerry's "mixed messages" are unpatriotic, in that they could undermine American soldiers and American interests abroad.

Kerry needs to meet this nonsense head-on. He is at his patriotic best when speaking the truth to America.
