Another Hail Mary
The Wall Street Journal has a well written column on Kerry’s new advisors. The long and the short of it is that the last minute substitution of advisors is a very bad sign. It is worth reading.
Of course this is what Kerry does. He did it in is only tough Senate race against Weld in ’96, and he did it in the primaries this year. He doesn’t push hard until the game is almost over. But he pulls out the victory.
Remember two vital facts: he is a great campaigner, and the press leans his way. When his surge forward begins it will be The Story all over the media. And Kerry will slide to a very narrow victory.
