...how would you react if Kerry used the exact same imagery in his ads? Can you even envision a way Kerry could use those images without you finding cause for fury? (and: please don't kid yourselves).

Actually, as I think about it, I can't envision any way that Kerry can plausibly use those images at all. And maybe that's another reason the DNC is irritated.

  - You're exactly right Justin. The ad was a strawman ad, and the Kerry folks unwhitingly walked right into the trap. - Scott Evil - 3/5/2004 7:12:55 PM
