While Bush still leads in the polls against every one of the Democratic candidates, the gap between Bush and Dean has grown markedly tighter in recent weeks, from a 14 percent gap (52 percent vs. 38 percent) at the end of September, to a 6 percent gap (49 percent vs. 43 percent) in the latest poll. Clark fares identically against Bush, with a 6 percent gap (49 percent vs. 43 percent), while Lieberman, Kerry and Gephardt have slightly wider gaps (7, 8 and 9 percent, respectively).
As much as I would rather see Clark up against Bush in debates, (I think Dean gets too angry and defensive, which won't sit well with voters) it looks like Dean's gonna be the man more and more. I hope he taps Clark as his running mate. A Dean/Clark or Clark/Dean ticket looks pretty good. BUT, Clark/Kerry is my dream ticket. As a party, we would destroy Bush/Cheney with that.
