ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - John Kerry counts on loud applause at campaign stops when he strikes against Dick Cheney and Halliburton. The Democratic presidential candidate seeks to tap into that vein of combativeness with a new attack and television ad aimed at the vice president and the multinational corporation he headed.

The new ad seeks to paint Cheney with a conflict of interest for collecting deferred benefits from the time was Halliburton's chief executive and the work the company has done during the war and reconstruction of Iraq (news - web sites).

It says the administration's decision to award contracts to Halliburton without competitive bidding wasted taxpayer money that could have been used to create jobs and provide health care. Several investigations into Halliburton's work in Iraq have shown evidence of overcharging or raised questions about the corporation's performance.


The campaign also seeks to link Cheney and Halliburton to the president's management of military and security operations in Iraq, and Kerry's frequent charge that the Bush administration works hardest for special interests.
