The pitch was hanging there, waiting to be smacked into the upper deck. All Kerry had to do was walk up to the questioner and say, "You just asked the president to name three mistakes. He couldn't name one. He can't correct his mistakes, because he can't see them, even when his own weapons inspector puts it on the front page of the newspaper. You can't change this president. You can only replace him."But of course, Saletan and I both had the luxury of collecting our thoughts a question at a time, and not in advance for an entire debate, so I am disposed to cut Kerry some slack here.
cordially,
