Great selection, and he should do exactly what you said Greg. Denounce the whole subject as a distraction, and get on with beating the crap out of the President. Damn right!

Whether it's social security or Vietnam, every election seems to get defined by some issue completely irrelevant to younger voters. Here's what I'd like to see the candidates talk about. Bush: How will your "ownership society" help turn around our current economical malaise? Kerry: Will rolling back tax cuts while increasing spending really put the economy back on solid footing? Bush: Can we realistically sustain a generation-long exercise of our military force in the War on Terror? Kerry: Our European allies have been driven as much by economic self-interest as anything in their avoidance of confronting rogue nations, how will your efforts to build a broader coalition be any stronger than Bush's?
