Campaigning in New Hampshire, Democratic candidates struck back.
"He's not making America safer," said Kerry.""Hardworking Americans will see through this president's effort to wrap his radical agenda with a compassionate ribbon," said former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, the third-place finisher in Iowa. "It's all smoke and mirrors designed to hide the stark fact that he has no real plan for our future," said retired Gen. Wesley Clark.

"The State of the Union may look rosy from the White House balcony or the suites of George Bush's wealthiest donors," said Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean (news - web sites). "But hardworking Americans will see through this president's effort to wrap his radical agenda with a compassionate ribbon."
Retired Gen. Wesley Clark (news - web sites) said Bush's promises were "just smoke and mirrors" to hide that he "has helped those who have most, hurt those who have least, and ignored everyone in between." Clark later told a New Hampshire audience that Bush "is a divisive, polarizing figure."
"There's a certain amount of deception, untruth and misleading information. We heard it in that speech," he said.

Fresh from his victory Monday in Iowa, Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites) of Massachusetts said Bush "still doesn't understand what's happening in living rooms across this country." He said Bush "talked about how he wants to help people find jobs, but for three years he stood by while we lost more jobs than at any time since the Great Depression."
