Time of concession??? Biggest mistake??

Kerry will never concede.

Biggest mistake was constantly saying "I have a plan" without actually presenting one.

I agree he will never concede.

He had many mistakes, first running on his "war experience" without releasing his military records, calling Bush a liar, being for or against the war depending on what audiance he was in front of or which way the wind was blowing, and his actual record in the Senate.

IMO, I think it was the "multiple faces" of Kerry. I was horrified by how willing he was to cater to his specific audience of the moment and say absolutely anything that he thought they wanted to hear. That resulted in mixed messages coming from the same mouth throughout any given day. All I kept picturing was him doing absolutely the same thing as he sat at the table with each foreign leader and that would of lead us back to the day of letting other countries completely dictating our priorities.

He'll concede at some point today...noon??

I think his last week of hammering at the missing explosives in Iraq hurt him big time. He assumed that no one could read that there were tons of inconsistencies in his placing the blame on Bush.

Listening to his republican PR advisor who told him the chicks will dig him if he has a nice dark tan.

He didn't make any big ones. The voters just didn't want him.

Trying to point to a mistake with him is like a guy asking why a girl turned him down for a date, and what he did wrong.

It doesn't have anything to do with a mistake, they just didn't want what he offered.


I'm actually curious about what Democratic leaders are saying - they're wondering about their strategy. I think they should consider their *message*.
