Fox News has Kerry, NBC gets Gen. Wesley Clark. Tim Russert followed up on Peter Jennings question at last week's debate regarding Michael Moore calling Bush a deserter. After giving Clark several opportunities to say the easy, and honorable, thing -- "President Bush wasn't a deserter" -- Russert gave up.
Clark also tells Russert that he is the only candidate who can bring in independents, moderate Republicans and "we'll even bring in people who voted for Reagan, and even Richard Nixon. And we're not even going to ask them to repent."
I was too young to have voted for either Reagan or Nixon, but the idea that doing so was so evil that it should require "repentance" is offensive.
