I was never a Kerry hater, but I find him very disappointing. Okay, so he's not as far left as Kucinich--I can live with that.

But I want to see his vision for the future of America. The Republicans do present a vision to the voters, even though it is a false one of rugged individualism and traditional values. Theimportant thing is that they HAVE a vision and constantly present it in one form or another, not only through the rightwing media but through all their candidates on every level.

In contrast, Kerry, like most other Dem candidates I've seen recently, comes across as a micro manager who will fiddle with this and fiddle with that, but really doesn't know where he wants to end up.

He may well have a vision, but I'm just not seeing it. Oh, and don't direct me to his website. I'm not talking about policy papers, but about an attractive picture of the future that he can present to the American people in five minutes or less.
