In a speech in front of a bunch of New Hampshire Democrats, John Kerry had lots of opinions about George W. Bush, but still couldn’t explain himself.

With Eye On 2008, Kerry Goes After Bush

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) barely said hello to the New Hampshire Democrats who filled a banquet room here Friday night before unloading on President Bush.

“This war in Iraq is a disgrace,” he said in the second sentence of his speech at a party fundraising dinner…

“A lie, a lie, a lie and a lie,” he said after recounting Republican claims that Iraq is not in a civil war, that North Korea’s nuclear advancement is former president Bill Clinton’s fault and that Democrats were behind the release of salacious e-mails that Mark Foley sent to former House pages…

Kerry said those who have encouraged him to run again believe he can be a viable candidate. “Are there enough people who believe that?” he asked. “Can we put that together? Have I learned the lessons of getting kicked on my butt and dusted up, and can I bring a better experience to the table? I think I’ve learned a lot of lessons. The question is, can you convey that to people? I don’t know. Those are the imponderables.”

For a guy who claims to know so much about other people and their intentions, it’s amazing how he can’t even answer his own questions about himself.

And someone better tell him that he’s not running against W in 2008. If he thinks 2004 was mean, tough and unfair, wait until he gets a load of Hillary.
