Santosh,
I should have clarified--I meant that Senator Kerry did nothing
significant in the Senate, meaning nothing that merited a mention in
the endorsements that came from his staunchest supporters. His Senate
record barely figured in the Democrat Convention in Boston. You've got
to ask yourself why four-and-a-half months in VietNam was a bigger part
of his own campaign spiel than his 20 years in the Senate.
