Any candidate that puts down anyone but Bush is not helping his candidacy, imho. I'd say the same if it were Dean who was bashing Kerry. The bashing obscures the message the candidate is wanting to get out, and gives the impression that the candidate has nothing to say on his own.

Last night on NPR's All Things Considered, they talked of Kerry, and the fact that his message doesn't seem to be getting out. They focused on his resume and how good it was, and then commented that there has to be more than just a resume. They then said that they hoped the new campaign director would help Kerry get out his message. I hope she does; I want to hear the messages of all the candidates so that we voters can make an informed decision based upon each candidate's message.
