Bob Herbert Op-Ed column says Sen John Kerry was selected by Democratic voters because they thought he could beat Pres Bush, not because they felt strongly about Kerry's positions on issues, or because they were drawn to his vision of future; says Kerry has run cautious and dull campaign so far, saying only things he thinks he should, shadow boxing instead of really mixing it up; says he is suffering in polls because of his reluctance to put his authentic self on display; says many voters do not think they know him; says he has yet to exhibit warmth or political savvy necessary to fully energize potential supporters; says overly cerebral campaign by candidate too inhibited to blow whistle on 'insanity surrounding nation' is recipe for defeat (M)
