A number of people like those in this article are urging John Kerry to "go big" in his campaign. I'm not sure if they want this because they think it will win him more votes or if they just want him to put on a show. Either way, I tend to think it may be too early for what they suggest. We have a long way to go before Election Day. I am more inclined to agree with this weblog post by Joshua Micah Marshall and view it as a wise early strategy. Of course, I would like the guy I vote for to stand for a lot more than John Kerry seems to represent…but I think there's plenty of time for that. When your opponent is suffering a steady stream of self-inflicted wounds…that's a good time to keep your yap shut.
