Kerry won landslide elections for every term he ran. He even won 57 percent in Nebraska during the Dukakis Debacle of 1988. He got 55 percent in the GOP Wave of 1994. Obviously Nebraskans loved him enough to keep him for 12 years.

So what?

Kerrey has been out of Nebraska for 12 years and a lot of things changed in meanwhile.

Beside, getting +50% is hardly a "landslide". Democrats like Jim Exon or Ben Nelson were doing better, and Nelson won reelection as Governor by over 70 in 1994.
