The good news is, that since 1960 at least, the candidate ahead at Labor Day won the election. The bad news is that in virtually every case, the candidate behind gained ground. I guess the key is, be far enough ahead on Labor Day and you should win it.

That is exactly it. Because on Labor Day, and a well traveled retiree like yourself should know this, Americans start paying attention to the Presidential races. So, if you can get 'em while they're vacationing, then you'll certainly get 'em while they're paying attention!
Kerry will gain back some ground but not enough to affect the outcome. The race from here on out, is President Bush's to lose.
