US Democratic Senator John Kerry says a video message from Osama Bin Laden sealed his defeat in a presidential race dominated by the 9/11 attacks.
Mr Kerry told NBC TV his opinion poll lead over President George W Bush fell away after the tape was broadcast.

Don't blame Kerry too much for this. It's almost a reflex for democrats to blame others instead of taking personal responsibility.

in a presidential race dominated by the 9/11 attacks.

What race is Kerry talking about? The race I witnessed was dominated by personal attacks by both sides "supporters" about each others military service, with a smattering of "I have a plan" and "I will continue with my plan" rhetoric. 9/11 didn't seem to figure much at all in the race. I do agree however that the Bin Laden tape was a death stroke for his campaign and his opponent's team played that last minute ace in the hole wonderfully.

Torakus must have missed the Republican Convention.
