Rep. DeLay: Of Course Rogue Regimes Support Kerry

Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., says foreign leaders support his campaign against President Bush, but that ought to concern American voters, a prominent Republican indicates.
Rep. Tom DeLay, R-Texas, says Kerry is right: Rogue leaders, including North Korea's Kim Jong Il, do support Kerry, because he's perceived as being less tough than President Bush has been on rogue regimes.
According to House Majority Leader DeLay, Reuters News Service on Monday quoted Kerry as saying, "I've met foreign leaders who can't go out and say this publicly, but boy, they look at you and say, 'You've got to win this, you've got to beat this guy [Bush], we need a new policy,' things like that."
Last week, the Financial Times reported, "Rather than dealing with President George W. Bush and hawkish officials in his administration, Pyongyang seems to hope victory for the Democratic candidate on Nov. 2 would lead to a softening in US policy towards the country's nuclear weapons programme."
Said DeLay in a press release, "If Kerry locks up Paris next, he's going to be tough to beat."
