Dean says attack him not Al Gore
Dean shamed the Gore attackers, good for him.

Having said that Clark and Kerry are kicking ass and I agree with all the candidates who just said Dean can't win.

5. Then you haven't been paying much attention.
I have the following sentiments expressed in GD today:

1. Gore should have waited until we voted in the primaries to endorse a candidate (as if he had to ask our opinion of which candidate he as a private citizen should support).

2. Gore was mean to Holy Joe Lieberman and it was classless of him to endorse Dean without first telling Joe. (Joe Lieberman wouldn't even be polling in double digits if not for the name recognition he got due to Gore picking him as running mate).

3. Gore sux!

4. It was immoral of Gore to pick a candidate.

5. Gore's endorsement speech was insulting to other people's candidates.

And that's just off the top of my head.

2. Then none of them can win
Dean's got the best chance, so I guess we should all give up....

7. My opinion, Gore's opinion doesn't matter...
Gore's greatest accomplishment was being the strongest candidate in 2000 (although it rightfully should be getting elected president of the united states). Still that's his greatest accomplishment because he unfortunately never became president. Personally I don't care what the strongest candidate in the election three years ago has to say. If he were running it would be a different story. Sure it will help Dean with fundraising but Dean hasn't had any trouble raising money. Speaking of which, I don't see why everybody is so sure of which candidate will win. There hasn't been a SINGLE vote cast yet. Anybody who has enough money to stick it out for the next several months is doing well.

8. no real votes cast, but thousands of virtual votes, grassroots votes
... of people who sent checks of $20-50 to Dean. has any candidate generated this many small contributions before the first primary, ever in history?

9. That was the most stupid statement of the debate. How can we blame Dean
for Gore's premature endorsement. An endorsement that Dean never needed and may compromise a lot of what his supporters expect from him.

Blame me for being shot!

13. Bush can't win. You heard me, BUSH can't WIN...
even if it's Al Sharpton's barber running against Bush...he's toasted, crispy, done.

No more George. Sad for some, but face the facts. He's already lost.

14. OK, he's got it: he (Dean) was miserable in this debate
especially when he couldn't answer about when is it OK for a POTUS to lie. (Hint: NEVER!)
