WITH the race tightening in the final stretch, Democrats have begun to believe--for the first time since the Boston convention--that Kerry really will win. Their spirits are rising, their "get out the illegals" drives in full swing, their lawyers primed and ready. But what if they lose again after all? Few Democrats have been prepared to discuss this awful prospect in public. That is partly for reasons of decorum and partly because Kerry may well win--and where would the pessimistic strategist be then? But there are occasional brave cases of men who will put their future where their mouth is.
