2. Dean

3. Dean

[Edge]

4. This college student, as well as most others on my college campus...

are supporting John Edwards 100%.

[Tweed]

23. Not sure what colleges you are at....

Clark is huge at my college and almost all of my friends across the nation are for Clark too. Gee, where does Dean get the idea that he is the candidate for college kids anyway?

(or any other dems who might get the nod.)

[UrbScotty]

6. Dean-Kerry-Clark-Edwards

It's a close battle for my vote on February 7!

[joshcryer]

7. Hmm, surprised by the Dean/Clark bias here. :)

Thought we'd get results similar to that of NH.

9. shows you what happens

when you let republicans vote for which candidate they'd like to face.

that system is terrible. only dems should be allowed to vote.

8. Still Dean

All the way to the White House.

[union_maid]

four main contenders are all the same to me... Why not give Kucinich my support, keep him in the debate and give his perspective clout.

but Clark first and foremost. I was riveted to C-SPAN's NH coverage last weekend and really liked Dean and Edwards too. They motivate, they inspire, they each have a special appeal ...

I want a non-establishment outsider to take our party and our country back. As someone who once thought a Kerry-Edwards ticket was our dream team to defeat Bush, I now look at Kerry with jaded eyes. I have not liked his campaign, I have not liked his attacks on other Dems, I do not like this sudden coronation of him by the media and the other Washington insiders. Moreover, topping off his wrong IWR vote, he failed to vote against the recent Medicare bill (conveniently avoiding actually taking a stand) and he failed to vote against The Bush Omnibus bill which passed by a very few (2-3?) votes.
How convenient, guess he learned from IWR to play it safe and not let his current JOB and/or pesky votes of conscience get in the way of the nomination that some say should be his.

On a personal note, when I met Kerry in summer 2002 (before IWR), at SC DemFest, I shook his hand and begged him not to support Bush re: Iraq. He shiftily scanned the room, then focused on my plea and reminded me (somewhat patronizingly since I am only Jane Q. Citizen and therefore must be rather dull): "but Saddam is a threat". I tried to recite my litany of reasons that Iraq was a Bush ploy (geez there was a ton of info out there, if only the lazy Aye-sayers had bothered to do even an ounce of homework), but I was quickly dismissed.

Anyway, he seemed calculating, hedging his bets and trying to get a feel for what would fly. It rubbed me wrong then and that's when I started looking for another candidate. I will support whoever the party nominates, but Kerry troubles me immensely. Real deal my ass and that "bring it on" rallying cry is like nails on a blackboard.

[question everything]

31. Edwards, then Kerry

but will be happy with any of them.

[anti-NAFTA]

32. Because you didn't include Gephardt

I picked Kucinich. Yes, I know Gephardt dropped out; but I can't help feeling like he's still my first choice.

[MODemocrat]

33. Dean, the more I hear the "scream", the more I like him

I hope they keep playing it 24/7, at least it keeps him in the
spotlight.

34. Still Edwards

I like his policies the best (no, not the IWR or Patriot Act) and he EASILY has the best chance to beat Junior. He has more positives and less negatives than any of the others, and he's got momentum and star power.

35. Geez...

How can Clark win in a landslide in every poll on the DU, but not pull in more than 14% in any national poll? IS it just the DU that loves him?

36. Clark nt
