@noboa @erikloomis @sethdmichaels But having said that, Kerry gets a bum rap. He ran a very good Fall race; much better for ex than Gore.
@speechboy71 At least from perspective of someone running precincts at county level, his campaign sucked ass. Pulling teeth to get GOTV.

@emptywheel Totally fair critique. I was speaking more from the national level. Strategy was good; and Kerry was excellent in debates -
@speechboy71 Yeah, but he lost abt 2 weeks in final weeks spinning wheels on GOTV. Really hurt, eg, turnout of women, which he targeted. -
@emptywheel But that;s one of the advantages of incumbency that Bush had. More time to identify and mobilize voters -
@speechboy71 But problem was not in IDing--at least not in my county. Problem was in wasting time diddling to figure out how to GOTV. -
@emptywheel Sure but that's part of the challenge.

@emptywheel@speechboy71 GOTV was largely left to ACT, which could use soft $ Kerry couldn't, allowed higher % of Kerry $ for persuasionThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
