You may well be right on that one.

realj: NYC and NY State will always vote overwhelmingly for the Democratic candidate in a Presidential election. A Repub can be a Mayor, Governor or even a Senator, particularly if his/her name ends in a vowel (not a name like Garcia though), in New York, but the Dems will always get NY's nod for the Presidency.

Also, Kerry mentioned his religious faith a lot, but, for the most part, the people who will base their vote for President on a candidate's religion tend to be Republicans. And let's be real: Kerry is a Catholic--we've only had one Catholic President in our history. Catholics don't tend to pick up a lot of swing voters.
