I think Dean can win against Bush. Not unless a two things not on the table happen, but he has the best chance of the nine dwarves. The two things are (1) a major *obvious to all* economic downturn in the next six months (right before the election won't count), and (2) big mistakes by the Bush election mavens in dealing with Dean. My thinking is that any attack on Dean will help him. I'm thinking of both hard, mean attacks, and funny, satirical attacks both. Dean has a good forehand and backhand both.
And I exect Dean to whoop the Clinton camp pretty easily. Like the taking of Bahgdad. At this point team Clinton is just supported by "french"-like supporters.

The economy is going thru the roof, and Dean comes across as a slick freshman used car salesman who can't control his own mouth. The swing group of soccer moms will never choose Dean over Bush. He's a paper bag full of words.
