The thing about this election, is that it isn't Bush vs. Kerry, it is Bush vs Not Bush. Kerry doesn't really stand for any clear cut issue that makes him discernable from any other democrat. Dean had something. Lieberman had something. Gore had something. Kerry has NOTHING. but how is he getting by? He isn't Bush, that's how. Anyway, if I were Kerry's campaign manager, Kerry would already be elected by now. He has to have the WORST run campaign in history, and if it were run better, he'd be president by now.
