1) Spent less on PA and more on OH.

2) Selected a different running mate (with preference going to Bill Richardson, Mark Warner, or Harry Reid).

3) Organized my campaign workers a heck of a lot sooner.  (Believe me, I was involved in the campaign on a local level and it was ridiculously disorganized ... especially in the early going.  The Dean people had A LOT more organization.)

4) Campaigned less in the South and more in the Southwest.

5) Would have put together a 30 second spot showing all of Bush's worst moments and run it endlessly.

6) Would have had Kerry work into one of the debates a line like "George, don't act like you know what combat is like.  You've never been there.  I have.  I know what it sounds like to hear bullets whizzing over your head.  I know how it feels when every nerve in body tenses about from the fear."
