See, people can point out lots of problems with Bush's policies, but they can't explain how Kerry can improve on the situation.
They can believe that Kerry won't continue to make more blunders as Bush will if he remains in office.

As to how this all could have been handled differently, I direct you to the post I made in that other Iraq thread oh so long ago. And I also want to make an observation: in the wake af Pearl Harbor, Americans were asked to step up, and they did. In the wake of 9/11, Americans were asked to step aside and let the professionals handle it. And they did. And this is the result.

At the very least, if Bush had managed to build up real support for the war in Iraq at home, he wouldn't have to deal with everybody always trying to "undermine" the effort.
