Yet another GOP man has come out in support for Kerry. This time it is Bob Smith former senator from New Hampshire who lived at the far right of the GOP and even once left the Republican Party at one point because he considered it too moderate.

Here's what he has to say about John Kerry:

As someone who worked with you daily for 12 years as a United States Senator, I am acutely conscious of the fact that we disagree on many important issues. Despite our differences, you have always been willing to engage in constructive debate in an effort to forge sound public policy.

I deeply respect your commitment to our nation and your patriotism which, I believe, was forged when you-like I-proudly wore the uniform of the United States Navy in Viet Nam...

Because of the courage and character you demonstrated in Vietnam, I believe you when you say that you'll do a better job than President Bush to win the peace in Iraq, as well as to win the war against terrorism.

And that coming from a hard-card prolifer pretty much says it all, doesn't it?
