I'm not as crushed as some people because I've never thought Kerry would win, but I'm still very disappointed. I did think it would be closer than this, and that my age group would turn out in higher numbers (17% among 18-29 year-olds, not that they broke all that much for Kerry: only 56%).
I agree with Kristof's editorial. It's all about "culturally powerful but content-free issues", with which Republicans can win and win and win until, hopefully, some genius Democrat can figure out how to neutralize this by reconnecting with the "average" voter. |
