OK, this is the last I'm going to talk about this. I don't know about those 45 minutes, but Kerry wasn't the President at the time. I don't know that he would have done better.
My initial beef with the 7 minute thing was that sledgie was essentially letting the President slide on it, while not letting Kerry slide on accusations that records that have been around for 35 years are suddenly being challenged. It wasn't the seven minutes thing specifically (though it has since turned into that) but the fact that Bush was being accused of waiting too long, and that pissed sledgie off ("It's abominable that you ask why a man doesn't flinch when he knows the cameras are on him at probably the greatest terroristic attack on American soil"), but Kerry's being attacked for something that happened over 35 years ago, and the records have been there, and he feels it needs an explanation.
Seems like attacks against Bush are bad for the Democrats and attacks against Kerry are, well, bad for the Democrats. Seems like a double standard.
I don't give a (edit: oops... bad word) about the seven minutes. I was just playing devil's advocate when asked what could have been done.
