Cheney puts the wood to Kerry today:

"In his years in Washington, Senator Kerry has been one vote of 100 in the U.S. Senate and fortunately on matters of national security, he was often the minority. But the president always casts the deciding vote and the senator from Massachusetts has given us ample grounds to doubt the judgment and the attitude he brings to bear on vital issues of national security."

Cheney's speech coincides with a $10 million television advertising spree by Bush's re-election campaign, starting this week, that seeks to portray Kerry as weak on national security. Other Bush ads have questioned the Massachusetts senator's fitness for the presidency because he voted against a $87 billion funding measure for U.S. troops in Iraq. Bush, Kerry has said, threatened to veto the bill.

And of course the Dems are having fits:

"Call off the Republican attack dogs," DNC Chairman Terry McAuliffe told reporters in Washington.

Cheney is has forgotten more about politics than dumbass Terry McAuliffe will ever know. Why is this guy still the head of the DNC? That's rhetorical as he's the Clinton's lapdog.
