Senator John Kerry's nomination to be secretary of state makes him something of a throwback. He is an unsuccessful nominee for president who appears set to ascend to a major new political position following his loss.If he is confirmed, he will become the first losing general-election candidate to do so since Richard Nixon recovered from his close 1960 loss to John F. Kennedy to win the presidency in 1968.
