Kerry can't pull together enough for a basketball team

From the Washington Post "Kerry plays catchup in online campaigning":

In July, about 3,000 Kerry fans attended 125 Meetup events across the country, while 352 were canceled. In August, about 2,100 fans attended 114 events, while 300 were canceled. And in September, only about 1,500 attended 89 events, while a whopping 481 were canceled because fewer than five people had confirmed their attendance.

Kerry can't get together five people plus he's trailing in New Hampshire, Iowa, and South Carolina. Appeals to check out his monogram are not working.
