Primary Post Mortem

Joe Trippi has posted the introduction to The Revolution Will Not Be Televised on his site. The money quote, though I think it might also apply to Republican Barry Goldwater:

U.S. News and World Report as a seven part series on how Kerry turned his campaign around and won with a well-run field organization when everyone had written him off.

There's the political operative who stepped in to make the fixes.

How the Dean campaign tripped.

The native Iowa political machine that turned out the vote for Kerry in several crucial Iowa counties.

How the Kerry campaign worked for the support of Iowa's Governor, Tom Vilsack.

Why the Perfect Storm didn't work.

Finally, gaffes, gaffes, and more gaffes vs. a steady hand.
