The Dems followed a ridiculous playbook cooked up by Bob Shrum (an old McGovern/Ted Kennedy hack) and frustrated Clinton/Gore and Dukakis flunkies all still smarting from previous lost battles. They have tried to "spin" their way into the White House. So far it has not worked.
The Kerryoids may have missed the G Spot of politics - the God Factor.
Kerry has fallen like Lucifer - by force of gravity.
