Bad candidate. Worse campaign manager. Anti-coattails drag down Dems in House, Senate.
For 2004:
• Get a governor, if one is available, or at least a senator with more of a record than BCCI.
• Social Security, Social Security, Social Security; scream it until the cows come home, both in Florida and in Midwestern states with lots of oldsters.
• Get a candidate who actually is a closer, and has a campaign manager who is one.
• Like it or not, voters vote on personality, and Kerry's didn't light enough sparks.
• DON'T be tempted to slide right, like a "rough beast, slouching toward Bethlehem."
As for me? I'm voting Green as long as the Dems don't have a real presidential candidate or a real national strategy.
