Why? Kerry was about as bad a candidate as the Dems could put up in 2004. - Inigo Jul 8, 17:01 13
- They are losing everyone under the age of 30 already. Trotting out another clueless show pony would do more serious damage - Stewie Jul 8, 17:07
- Kerry was bad, there's no doubt there. But she's monumentally bad. - Jim Jul 8, 17:05
- Kerry is a succesful politician, though. Maybe not a GOOD politician, but successful. - TWuG Jul 8, 17:03 2
  - He lost the presidential election. She lost it. He's won Senator races. She won the governor's race. - Inigo Jul 8, 17:07 1
    - How many times did she run? And how many times did Kerry run? -- nm - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 17:11

  - He lost to Bush. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 8, 17:05 5
    - That's not a bad candidate, just a losing one. - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 17:10 4
      - You're thinking of Gore. The Bush/Kerry election wasn't really that close. - Inigo Jul 8, 17:12 3
        
        It was. " Bush won the popular vote with 50.73% to Kerry's 48.27%. Although in percentage terms it was the closest popular margin ever for a victoriou - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 17:21
        
        I consider the flipping of Ohio changing the results as close. -- nm - David Jul 8, 17:19
        
        Yes, Bush/Kerry was a fair win by Bush, I think. - Beryllium Jul 8, 17:18
