I have been thinking a lot about that late Kerry surge, where peopole realized that the front-runner was nuts (Dean) and had no chance of winning.
That surge, however, had little to do with Kerry, and more to do with Dean-a-phobia.
I can see Fred beginning a similar surge.
BTW, Huck is the nut in this scenario.
I agree that Kerry was the beneficiary of apprehension about Dean, but Kerry also hit his stride on the stump with a one-liner (I cannot remember exactly what it was, something like "We need to nominate a President, not just..." Obviously I am struggling here). Anyway, Fred needs that one-liner. I have it, but I don't know how to get it to him.
