SUMMARY: In his latest column, The Wall Street Journal's Brendan Miniter claimed that former Sen. Max Cleland "was voted out of office for being too soft on the war on terror" and that Sen. John Kerry lost his 2004 presidential bid "after being savaged for calling for a 'global test' in the use of American military power, waffling on the war in Iraq, and allegedly inflating his service on a Navy swift boat."
