What is stinky is the Catholic church's selective and arbitrary use of annulments. Kerry was merely opportunistic and a real jerk to take advantage of it at the expense of his former wife and children of the marriage.

It will not keep me from voting for Kerry this time if I have to (with nose held). I also believe Catholic annulments are a problem for Catholics to reconcile within their church, not in the presidential political arena. I'm guessing most Catholics would feel the same. I also don't think Republicans will be able to make an issue of this.
