11. Two things...
Assuming fair elections, if the Kerry campaign hadn't focused on that mythical independent voter so much, and instead worked on a cohesive, strong (and opposing) message, he would've had it in the bag. I'd be willing to bet Dean would've pulled it off, had the neocon media not destroyed him in the primaries. Edwards could've pulled it off, too, but he was not in the spotlight because of Kerry.

Mind you, I am not criticizing Kerry personally. I am criticizing those strategists in his campaign, i.e., the one who denounced gays as the reason he lost (anyone who knows politics and history knows that it was national security that gave it to Chimp).

Second, I wish people would step up and call for impeachment. Pulling the troops out is not enough (even though that's unlikely to happen). We need to hold this Chimp accountable and set a precedent for future presidents who might want to abuse power.
