10. Some people think he was waiting for the last minute, but it's a mistake
When you are in a fight, you want to land every punch you can all through the fight. You don't wait until the last round and hope to land a knockout punch. The Republicans have been landing punches all along, we seem to be waiting to throw that one punch in the last round that's going to save us. It's a terrible strategy and Kerry has been damaged because of it.

It's great that Kerry is hinting that he's going to start fighting now, but now matter what he does at this point is going to look a little like defense because he allowed the right wing to be on the offensive for months without a decent response.

Kerry can probably still win this, but the campaign has made some very serious mistakes that any idiot should have been able to avoid.

People don't care about being nice, they want to see ass kicking.
