I was hoping Kerry would keep himself visible and take on a stronger role in the Senate after this election, and it sounds like he's hoping to do so, too. Pete Wallsten writes about Kerry's future, and the future of the DNC, here. This is particularly refreshing, after all the "Kerry failed us" talk I'm getting so sick of hearing:

"'There's a tradition,' [Robert] Farmer said. 'Nixon ran and lost and then won, Reagan ran and lost, then won. In this case, you'll have to look at the field and say to yourself, 'Could another candidate have won states that John Kerry didn't win?' And my sense is that I don't think anybody could have done much better than John Kerry did.'"
