He is not Bill Clinton.
Just gotta say it again, right off, because it is, quite possibly, still the most difficult fact for most moderates and Demos to accept, even now: Kerry is not Clinton. Kerry is not JFK. Kerry is not quite even Al Gore. We have to accept it. Let's go from there.
It bears repeating because, as tens of millions (billions, even) across the planet realize, Bush is so obviously ripe, so obviously dripping with glaring misprision, so deeply rife with flaw and bumble and moronism, and his policies are so full of gaping holes and his ethics are so full of hostile lies and his wars are so lacking in WMDs and "nukuler" plants and any sort of justification, well, you'd think any decent opponent worth his sound bite would have a veritable cakewalk stomping Dubya's little cowboy brain into powdery AWOL Texas cow-pie smithereens.
But so far, it ain't happening. The BushCo spin machine is lethal and malicious and formidable indeed, for one thing. The Repubs are phenomenally well funded and absolutely heartless, and it cannot be understated how effective your campaign can be when you have zero ethics about attacking your opponent and zero moral compass and zero accountability and when you have Karl Rove for an underhanded heat-seeking attack-dog missile of bile and innuendo and slander and smear...

Can the left EVER debate ANYTHING without name-calling?
If only he were homosexual, eh, Miss Morford?
You answered your own question regarding what is wrong with John Kerry...
Look in the mirror, bub.
Gee, where to start? The problem with John Kerry is that he's a thoroughly unlikeable, arrogant creep who lives off rich widows, constantly glorifies himself while at the same time denigrating others, and is running for President for no apparent reason and has no serious ideas of his own.
They keep misunderestimating W, and their fall will be terrible to behold.
"They're coming to take me away
Ha Ha Ho Ho He He!
The'yre coming to take me away!
The men in the little white suits
Are coming to take me away!"
Fun, fun, fun! Enjoy the show, folks. Liberal heads are exploding from sea to shining sea!
And here I thought it was the dems that presented forged documents to the electorate!!
These people border on criminally stupid if there is such a thing.
To answer the question, it's the lack of ideas, credibility and intelligence (on both Ketchup Boy's and Goron Moford's part).
Kerry's problem:
All hat.
No cowboy.
He's more like Clinton than they want to admit - the baaad parts.
The problem is all the LIES and double-talk.
He is a used-car salesman, with life-insurance salesman thrown in.
Kerry
is
AL GORE minus the charisma...
You may have noticed that ridicule and name-calling are their only weapons. Nazi, Facist, baby-killer, etc...
That's a good start, but how about sold out his country, turned his back on his comrades in arms, consorted with the enemy in Paris and Nicaragua, defiled our military, coerced vulnerable people to lie about atrocities, voted to defund intelligence, voted against every weapons program he came across, and wanted eternal appeasement and accomodation of Communism. Other than that, he's just a regular old Joe with whom we'd probably all enjoy hoisting a few cold ones.
If you can get through the hate, this appears to be someone that has a belief as to who will win the election and does not like what he sees. That is good.
Primarily, it is the arrogance. That is what has caused problems for him his entire life.
Sorry Miss Morford, I don't think Kerry will date you either.
Ping!
Even Miss Morford knows Kerry is going to lose..
