If you aren't apologizing for something, you probably aren't trying to do anything at all.

That's just it. It's a catch 22 and no one can meet the standard.

Its just a lose/lose.

Thousands dead, millions of lives affected. And if no one meets the standard, why identify as a Democrat? Why bother at all?
Your cynical line of thinking may be reassuring, but some of us want to hold our leaders to a standard.

I have faith that, if elected, John Edwards would be a fantastic President.
I also really appreciate his ability to say that he has made mistakes and that he has learned from them.
While we all can look back on these things and say how poor the decision was; without putting each decision into the context that it was made in, we fail to give credit to a position that might have been more nuanced.
Of course, ask Kerry where nuance gets you...

Excuse me, but which "leader" currently meets YOUR "standard"?
