Trailing in the polls and facing criticism even among Democrats for
his lacklustre performance, John Kerry began the final stage of the
Presidential campaign yesterday with visits to three swing states, a
new stump speech and a shake-up of his leading staffers.
Encouraged by many supporters not least former president Bill
Clinton the Massachusetts senator will reportedly give important
roles to architects of the Clinton victories in 1992 and 1996, among
them strategist James Carville of Little Rock "war room" fame, and the
pollster Stanley Greenberg. Mr Kerry is also bringing in John Sasso, a
trusted friend from Massachusetts politics and manager of Michael
Dukakis's losing 1988 White House bid, as his top travelling adviser.
