HOWELL RAINES says that John Kerry must do better.

Ed Morrissey says that “Raines thinks that Americans are just too stupid to understand Kerry.”

UPDATE: Reader Terry Notus thinks Raines has it backward:

In that Raines article in the Guardian you linked, he writes “As America’s FIRST WAR-HERO candidate since John F Kennedy, he ought to be leading the national
discussion on what went wrong in Iraq.”

You would think Howell Raines would have heard of George McGovern or at least George H.W. Bush, right?

You’d think.
