Kerry would have alienated his base. And I don't really think he would have won even one more state by doing embracing the gay marriage bans.

Given the court decision from MA, perhaps there simply was no good strategy on this issue in this election cycle. I think Kerry played his hand as well as it could be played.

Clinton doesn't walk on water. Much of his success in the WH was due to his political staff and the appeal of his personalality, just like any other president. He's not a professional political strategist.
