I'm looking for solid opinions. If you are incapable of viewing these issues in an unbiased manner, please do not reply.
My question is this...
Did Kerry lay out any kind of solid platform? Did he talk at all about what he wants to do if he becomes Presdient? Or was it more focussing on the past and what he would have done differently or the old Bush is bad, I'm not Bush so a vote for me is good logic?
So far there has been very little of substance coming from the Kerry campaign. I didn't get to see the speech so hopefully some folks who watched and can actually be objective on the subject can answer the questions above....although I have to say, I'll be shocked if it wasn't more of the same.

Lol, despite asking for an 'unbiased manner', i think there's some evidence of bias in the post. I doubt many of us could be completely neutral on this topic, given that we've all been inundated with US political views, through mediums such as Farenheit 911, Fox newsbreaks between Simpsons episodes, etc.
Also interesting to note above that fiscal responsibility (pure buzz wordiness) is a 'conservative' value. Clearly fiscal irresponsibility must be a Democrat thing. This has obviously changed recently, as Bush' handling of US finances is completely haywire. Hundreds of BILLIONS in taxcuts right before hundreds of BILLIONS in war expenditures. I'm sure its not his fault though, Iraq brought the fight to him
