I think the Kerry campaign has been disappointing - there are so many places where Bush is out of touch with voters, yet Kerry does not try to exploit these. Also Kerry has not been able to paint a picture of himself as a "Leader" with a plan for the future. I think its extreamly sad, when all it took to do a character killing on Kerry was constant "Flip Flop" comments from Republicans about Kerry - if Kerry had been good, then he could turn that into some positive or funny, and then gotten the spotlight back on the issues where Bush is weak.
I can explain how Kerry is loosing the election, but I can not understand it, unless someone who are close to Kerry gives him very bad advice (or maybe he is just not cut to be President).
PD - how would describe the Kerry campaign so far?

Kerry's campaign has been pathetic. he needs people around him to tell him to stay on point. Something he has a hard time doing. He fell right into Bush's trap - they have been labeling Kerry as a wishy-washy NE liberal. Kerry has flip flopped on issues, especially Iraq. It would be one thing if there was not video, and press around to doucement it all - but the man has held at least 5 different posistions.
He should have staked out a posistion and stuck with it. Probably would have been best to stick to supporting the idea of war, just not how Bush handled it. ( too few troops, etc...)
Bush should thank his lucky stars for being blessed with such a candidate and the poor campaign team.
