days before the election, James Carville stood in a Beverly Hills
living room surrounded by two generations of Hollywood stars. After
being introduced by Sen. John Kerry's daughter, Alexandra, he told the
room - confidently, almost cockily - that the election was in the
bag.</font><br>

having raised as much money as the Republicans, with 55% of the
country believing we're heading in the wrong direction, with our
candidate having won all three debates, and with our side being more
passionate about the outcome than theirs - if we can't win this one,
then we can't win [anything]! And we need to completely rethink the
