Kerry shows us again (by opening his mouth) why he's not fit to be president.

SEN. KERRY: ... it is significant that there is a vote in Iraq. But no one in the United States or in the world-- and I'm confident of what the world response will be. No one in the United States should try to overhype this election. This election is a sort of demarcation point, and what really counts now is the effort to have a legitimate political reconciliation, and it's going to take a massive diplomatic effort and a much more significant outreach to the international community than this administration has been willing to engage in. Absent that, we will not be successful in Iraq.

MR. RUSSERT: Do you believe this election will be seen by the world community as legitimate?

SEN. KERRY: A kind of legitimacy--I mean, it's hard to say that something is legitimate when a whole portion of the country can't vote and doesn't vote.

Comments from da captain

Well, Senator, seventy-two percent did vote. Questioning the legitimacy of an election in which three-quarters of the eligible voters participated just sounds like sour grapes, a refusal to acknowledge that Bush may have been right all along, while Kerry's murky suggestions of the presidential campaign to slow down would have been disastrous. Typical

Typical indeed.
