I too was suspicious when the Clintonistas came on board. But from what I could see, they helped Kerry tighten up the campaign in the final days.
Kerry would have lost by 15 points if Mary Beth Cahill had not been eclipsed by the Clintonoids. She was absolutely clueless about how to run a campaign.
Agreed. But it was a win/lose proposition getting the Clinton Gang to come on board. They provided much needed discipline and focus- but they focused on the wrong things. What's interesting is whether or not these guys even realize how much they wanted Kerry to lose- making way for Hillary. How concious do you think it was on their part?
Exactly. Thune is whining because the Clintonistas showed us what an inept campaign he was running. It was Bill hisself that told Querry to come out against gay marriage--a piece of advice he probably should have taken.
I agree, I think that they did help kerry in the final days. This is a blame anyone but kerry game.
