"He isn't seeking to perfect Swift-boating, he's seeking to end it."

John Kerry:

"I believe Barack Obama has this moment of history to be able to change these politics and take the negative off, to take the politics of destruction away. He isn't seeking to perfect Swift-boating, he's seeking to end it. This is a man who understands we've got to talk to each other."

And Kerry is a man who doesn't understand that he was a terrible candidate.
