KERRY IS SWEATING. The Iran question isn’t helping. What would Kerry do? He doesn’t answer, shifts to Iraq — but the “let the inspectors work” argument doesn’t fly given that inspections and sanctions aren’t working in Iran.
Now we’re onto North Korea? Instead of exasperated, Bush is looking incredulous.
Bush calls him on the “inspectors” bit. Says that Kerry is naive and dangerous about North Korea. Hits on Kerry’s bilateral/multilater straddle, says Kerry’s following the failed Clinton strategy.
