Do they really think they will hurt Kerry by spreading that picture around? Kerry should thank them, cuz they do him a tremendous favor by poking holes in his stiff patrician facade.
Dukakis' problem was that he came off likea dweeb, and the tank helmet picture accentuated his dweebiness, but that's not the position Kerry's in. If there's anything to be learned from the George W. Bush era, it's that America would much rather elect a average-joe goofball than a haughty upper-crust intellectual, and up until now Kerry has been looking too much like the latter. So if his unwitting Woody Allen impersonation knocks him down a few notches that might be the best thing that ever happened to his campaign.
