...I'm sorry, but I'm not buying that. I don't know how deep the moonbat fringe goes; I don't know how Kerry's core breaks down between, say, Michael Moore/DU extremists, Deaniacs, and those closer to the center. But I adhere to my premise: If he's elected, John Kerry's supporters will begin to fracture, badly, by November 3. By next July, there will be a metaphorical, but very active and very serious, war going on within the Democratic Party. There will be folks marching outside the White House chanting "Hey, hey, JFK, how many kids did you kill today?" (Note: It's not that I think that Iraq is comparable to Vietnam, it's that they do.)

Anyone who thinks a President Kerry could ignore these folks is dreaming. Anyone who thinks it won't adversely affect his prosecution (yes, I know that's a term with mixed and unfortunate meanings) of the fight against the terrorists is delusional. Anyone who thinks he'll be able to fight the terrorists effectively anyway is ... well, more optimistic than I am.
