That's fine, but has little basis in reality. Many of the races fall the way they do based on local issues. The Republicans gained a seat here or there, but there was no question that the public was turning against the Republicans at that point in time. The fact that a candidate as weak as Kerry had a shot at winning portrayed that more than anything else could.
