So much promise, to no great purpose." Clinton returned fire at the Democratic Convention in Boston last month. "Strength and wisdom," he declared, "are not opposing values."

There is no virtue in blind, stupid stubbornness (neither mine nor our President's), no wisdom in sticking to an untenable position. I am flip-flopping to support Kerry. Stewart Perry Wayzata, Minnesota, U.S. The photo you published of a woman yawning as Kerry addressed a rally in Iowa says it all about Kerry - boring.
