Wow, that's completely off-topic and moronic. And it only proved that the Supreme Court simply wasn't interested in ruling at that time. Kerry lost in 2004 despite his best efforts to use Iraq as a wedge to split Americans apart. It is not a viable strategy.John Kerry's strategy wasn't viable four years ago because the American Public simply wasn't sufficiently interested in Iraq as a wedge issue in 2004. As much as I dislike wedge issues (and oh boy howdy, do I ever), Americans are indeed more interested in Iraq as a wedge issue today. Look at a poll sometime.
My point, which went flying way over the sack of rocks that you appear to call your "head," is that attitudes and priorities change; things that are "important" to voters one year are not necessarily as important the next cycle, and the reverse is true as well.
Iraq really isn't that important to me as an election issue, but it is for a lot of people.
