Dean’s position on Iraq isn’t entirely contrary to Bush’s. He would, unlike dark horse Rep. Dennis Kucinich, keep troops in Iraq. But this campaign promise, made in the most odious of bad faiths, is essentially a promise to demoralize “the boys” and get them out of the Middle East as soon as possible. Does Dean honestly think he’ll get the vote of any American who has even the least bit of love for Bush (well over half at this time), or those...
...They agreed that President Bush has been, as Dick Gephardt said, a "miserable failure" in the postwar period. All the major candidates favored a deal with the U.N. to bring more foreign troops into the peacekeeping operations; none counseled retreat.

But, said Green Kevin McKeown, mayor pro-tem of Santa Monica, "waiting for the Democratic Party to nominate Dennis Kucinich is like worrying about what brand of ice skates to buy in case hell freezes over." Also weighing on the decision are strict...
...recent weeks MoveOn held what was billed as "the first Internet primary." Some 317,000 people voted, and Dean came in first, with an impressive 44%. But the relevance of the poll was put in doubt by the Democrat who came in second: the very liberal Representative Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, a true no-chance candidate...
