As someone who leans republican, I have to say that Kerry gave a pretty good speech. He said everything he needed to say and he came off looking like he would be strong on terrorism should he be elected.
Unfortunately, he did the same thing that most democrats do: he promised us the moon but didn't tell us how much it is going to cost us in the end. He said we should increase defense spending, that we should not privatize social security, and that we should not cut out important government programs, especially for kids. How exactly is he going to pay for all this? He's not going to get it by lowering taxes on the middle class, which he also promised to do in his speech.
My problem with the democrats is simple. They tell us flat out that they will not raise taxes on the middle class. I flat out don't believe them.
