RgrF thinks anything that's not approvably Left Wing must be "Right wing". Are those really the only two choices?
Even French people don't like French people anymore. Doesn't have much to do with the way anybody votes. The moment Kerry was nominated, the Village Voice predicted he'd lose. I didn't believe it at the time. After four miserable years, how hard can it be to beat his opponent? I thought his campaign had a better chance than Gore's to not only win, but win decisively. I was wrong. Maybe voters just don't like Ivy League New England candidates enough to tip the balance. Leaving aside that Bush is from Connecticut. Maybe the just didn't like Kerry, or his hair, or his wife. Or his weak campaign. Who knows. Maybe midwestern Democrats have a better chance.
