Let me tell you my friend, I have several friends who consider themselves as life long democrats who see George W. Bush as their choice in 2004. Sure they would like to vote for a democrat, but they see no democrat strong enough on foreign policy to convince them to vote for them.

Look at Ex Mayor of New York City, Ed Koch, He has already said he will vote for Bush and he is not alone. I believe if nothing major happens to change the current political climate between now and next November, the 9 democrats who want George W. Bush's job will win New York, California, Pennsylvania and quite possibly every state in the Union, including Dean's home State of New Hampshire.

The polling numbers in a match up between Howard Dean and George W. Bush shows George W. Bush winning every state and by huge numbers. Granted, those numbers could change when the field is narrowed, but I can't help to wonder how in the hell will Howard Dean be able to justify his position on this war and his many flip flops on the issues. If we think Al Gore looked bad during the 2000 debates, wait until Howard Dean tries to defend his love affair with the U.N. and how he would've never go to war without prior permission from the U.N.

Howard Dean is a flake and he makes Rob Reiner look like a right wing extremest

Plus, Dean is a medical doctor who supports partial birth abortion. Dean is radio-active.

Please, let them nominate him. I want a bloodbath.

I hope GWB had long coattails because he (we) need a solid US Senate majority.

Don't doubt that for a second. And it's those democrat votes that Bush will need to make up for the loss of conservative voters who feel betrayed by his administration and who will probably stay home on election day.
