You can be certain and be wrong!

Fearsome article (thanks JJ) in the NYT Magazine, confirming the diagnosis of dilettantism referred to in an earlier post.

It's true that confidence goes a long way in awing your enemy when you're standing face to face. But when you cannot find an enemy to stand face to face with, it doesn't help at all - it obfuscates your vision. That's where Bush is right now. Senator Kerry's statement quoted in the title cuts right to the heart of this.

I am confident that Americans realise before it is too late that they will loose with confidence if they vote Bush.
