Republicans for Dean” supporters who aren’t exactly Democrats from straight out of central casting, mainly driven by their opposition to the Iraq war and concern for civil liberties in the wake of the Patriot Act and its coming sequels.

I am a Republican for Dean -- but only because I believe that he is unelectable. Hence my hope that he will be the Democratic nominee.

Thank you! My sentiments exactly. We need to pray every day that nothing goes wrong and that Dr. Howie is nominated by the Dem-o-rats. Not only will GW clean his clock in November, albeit not by a "blow-out", but it will also drive a wedge in his party between the Clinton and the Dean/Gore/Bradley factions of the party. (Just heard today that Bill Bradley is going to endorse Dr. Howie. You go boy!) The more divisivenss in the Dem party the happier I am.
