Won’t be the first time
I’ve stated that I didn’t think Clark could beat Dean, as Dean as energized a portion of Democrat loyalists. I could be wrong:
Former NATO Gen. Wesley Clark’s campaign is gaining ground in the latest New Hampshire poll and Howard Dean is slipping among Democratic supporters, according to the latest poll out Wednesday.
The Granite State’s primary takes place on Jan. 27. Recent poll numbers show that Dean, the former Vermont governor, remains on top there, but new developments have emerged in the battle for second place. Whereas Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry had been in the lead for second and was once a favorite to win that state, Clark has surpassed him for that position, according to the American Research Group poll released Wednesday.
Dean does maintain a rather significant lead (20 points) though so I’m not quite wrong yet. And Dean is potentially toast in the south.
Dean does do one thing for the Democrats, he makes Clark look moderate.

He does? How so?

Angry Dean (regardless of his stance) appears, well, angry. Moderates aren’t angry.
Of course, it’s all my opinion.

I wouldn’t vote for either of them…look beyond the rhetoric to the policies and they’re pretty thin.

Jane:
Just curious: Who would you vote for?

Don’t listen to Jane..she’s a Canuck and can’t vote, (just like me, but she doesn’t also have to bear the indignity of taxation without representation).
