[lbo-talk] No, actually, I don't believe it.

  And he LOST!!!!
  I see this election as a repudiation by the American People of any progressive values.  The fact that Kerry ran a kind of populist campaign and lost despite running against a president who is widely perceived as a failure should put to rest any notion that the American public is receptive to any progressive message.

  This kind of talk really makes no sense. Kerry lost 51 to 48. That's not a landslide, it's not even a 'decisive defeat.' 48% of the voters picked Kerry. And the margin was only 3%, meaning you only would have had to shange the minds of 1.5% of the voters and Kerry would have won.
