While true when you take his run for the Presidency in a vacuum, when you look closer at his voting record and the stances he has taken throughout his political career, he really couldn't be much further left when it comes to the spectrum of positions throughout the democratic party.
I think it has been said before in another thread if not this one that it also might not be a bad idea for liberals in general to criticize the intelligence of people that disagree with their points of view, it tends to stop any common political discussion and it of course will never convince anyone that you have the better ideas and direction when it comes to leading the nation.
Like I said, I voted for Kerry in this election, but it was a very hard decision for me to make.
