57. He did have a fair shot - the past ELECTION!!!!
You have to think about this guy carefully.....everyone knows why Kerry is doing what he's doing....he started his candidacy 4 years early and it doesnt matter a hill of beans to people who share my rage for John Kerry. Its not all about losing the election...for me its still the below reasons:

1) Kerry had to run neck and neck with a failed president....with enough baggage to start a suitcase business. Kerry stumbled and equivocated enough of his own beliefs...and despite the added support of just about every member of the Democratic party, 527 orgs, and even some Nader/Greens...he still couldnt move America 3 more percentage points...Kerry should have buried Bush.....voter fraud or not.
He didn't do it because he compromised who I thought he was.

2) This trip around the US acting like a republican is just more proof that he didn't "grow a new pair" after the election...he's still letting the other side dictate who he is..instead of standing firm for Democratic values

3) He doesn't keep promises...He should be having weekly or daily press conferences to push hard for Voter Rights. This he promised so many times but has done little besides write a bill or two. He should have Al Gore, Stephanie tubbs-Jones, Barbara Boxer, and John conyers on his team to help Americans wake up about voter fraud....hes running over himself trying to campaign on every issue and hes muddling the water again....stick to one or two key issues, and work on growing a spine regarding other issues....but VOTER RIGHTS should be his mantra.

Kerry is going to have to get real with himself and realize that the train left him. He should join up with the people i mentioned above and work with DNC Chairman Dean to help the next candiate (who better not be Hillary...another spineless one) win in 2008.
