Dean is going to crunch them all. These 'polls' are silly when you consider the caucus style set up.

[Petronski]

NH is not a caucus.

[loudmouths]

It looks like the undecideds will crunch them all.

[KQQL]

NH is a primary

[ClintonBeGone]

NH is a primary

Ahhh, my bad :)

[Pubbie]

*Ping*!

Dean has stabilized in NH.

If Dean wins Iowa then it's all over.

Looks to me like Clark - Kerry - Edwards will split the anti-Dean vote in NH and give Dean the win.

[OldFriend]

Meaningless until after the Iowa phoney baloney caucii.

[pgkdan]

Looks like Clark's momentum has been stalled. I wonder if it's because of his pro-war Congressional testimony, his pro-Bush Times op-ed piece, his over the top call for the President's impeachment or just because he's now been in NH long enough for folks up there to realize he's just plain nuts?

[KQQL]

he's just plain nuts

[pgkdan]

You're right. Things are really going to heat up in NH next week. I expect Dean to launch an all out attack on Clark. Goodness knows he's got enough to go after him with. This should be very entertaining.

[Congressman Billybob]

As I have written before, Dean Campaign Manager, Joe Trippi, is an excellent mechanic with a total lack of ethics. Therefore, I expect Trippi to engineer a result in the Iowa caucuses that puts Dean about 5% above the last pre-caucus polls.

So, Dean wins Iowa, New Hampshire and then South Carolina, with different unDeans placing second in each state. So, by early February ut will be clear that Dean owns the nomination, and Bush owns the general election.

[OldFriend]

Unless he is sure he'll win, then he'll not savage Clark but choose him for his veep.

Funniest line tho was when Clark was asked about beeing veep to Dean......he said NO, it would be a bottom heavy ticket!!!!!

[glockmeister40]

I hope your're right about Dean getting the nomination. I want him to take control of the 'rat party from the clintons. There's no doubt he'll drive it into the ground. What I don't want is Clark getting the nomination. He'll pick hillary as his vp. If he would win the presidency, he should expect to have an accident, Ft. Marcy Park style or a "plane crash", Ron Brown style.

Hillary knows that Rudy Gullani will beat her in the 2006 senate race - she has to make her move now.

Dean is the best bet for conservatives - we should actually give money to him: He'll take the party away from the klintons and get his ass kicked in nov 2004. Rudy then beats hillary in 2006 and the klintons disappear down the sewer from whence they came.

[Right_in_Virginia]

So, by early February ut will be clear that Dean owns the nomination, and Bush owns the general election.

I (really, really) hope you're right.

[The Wizard]

Clark is the biggest asshole out there, and that saying something....
