Dean lost the Iowa voters when he shouted down the old guy in the town meeting with comments to the effect of "George Bush is not my neighbor" among other things.

Yes, Dean did shoot himself in both feet, but we're lucky that not too many Republican voters were put off by Bush and Cheney's "Clymer" remarks. Enough people had heard of Bush by that point to have dismissed the remark as campaign fatigue or something like that.

My point remains, somebody acceptable to the conservative side of the Republican Party must get his name out there, and soon!
