WTF????? When has Kerry ever needed to come back. A liberal from Mass is a shoe-in.

That's just it. EVEN IN TAXACHUSSETS, where he should never have had any problems to begin with, he DID have problems, he WAS behind, and he "came back" at the end to get elected.
That's what makes this supposedly "mythic" reputation so laughable in the first place. That as a Democrat he had to struggle so hard to win somewhere where not even Ted Kennedy has had to fight a real fight in ages says something, but it's -not- that he's a reliable winner of a candidate!
(Well, okay, I'm not sure that TK hasn't had any real fights for his seat or not, but I've never heard that he's had to, and he certainly hasn't had to earn a "comeback kid" reputation for it!)
