You know it's never as easy as that. Let's see if Kerry can go from just sounding like an SI poster to sounding Presidential, with real proposals, including, but not limited to, what we do in Iraq.

I agree that, after that press conference, Kerry doesn't have a big hurdle to step over, but so far he's avoided it. Bush has a history of rallying and actually sounding good behind a teleprompter. Whoever allowed him to do that press conference needs to be fired immediately or your prediction of 30% will come true sooner.

What almost nobody mentions is that between undecided and eligible, but do not vote, there is at least 50%. So far, I don't see Kerry doing anything to bring these people in, except for a couple of speeches at a couple of colleges. While many blame Nader for Gore's loss, the fact is that Gore did very little to bring in the self-disenfranchised.
