Former Democratic Party boss and Clinton friend Terry McAuliffe is lambasting John Kerry's unsuccessful presidential campaign, calling his effort to unseat President Bush "one of the biggest acts of political malpractice in the history of American politics."

 

This should be a book that everyone loves, well except for Kerry.

I thought the Dems made a mistake in not running someone more popular. I highly suspect the reason why Bush beat out Kerry is largely due to the fact that, between the two of them, Bush is the only one who doesn't look like a tree. Americans may be superficial, but charisma and apperance defiantely matter, as the Democrats should well know. They got it in the 60's with JFK, why not now?

What amazes me is that Kerry ended his presidential campaign with $16,000,000 left over. Why the heck wasn't this money used in the final weeks of his campaign to drive home his message and to help get out the vote?

 

During the last two months of the election, I got the distinct feeling that Kerry was trying to throw the race. There is no way someone could be as politically stupid has he was at the end of his campaign.

 

In regards to personality, I've come to the conclusion that Kerry is about as funny as a broken leg. Like you said he has no personality or charisma.

And he was so impressive in his 20s...
