13. Good post

I agree.

I like Kerry, but I don't think he can win. He's a so-so campaigner, with a long history of Senate votes which can be spun in any direction.

Bill Clinton didn't win because he was an establishment Democrat - he won because he came in from the outside, questioned some of the dogma, shook things up. He pissed off some of the orthodox standard bearers.

Can Kerry really extend the party into new territory? He can win the hate-Bush vote, but I don't believe that's enough.
