The Dems would be "foolish" to stop this run BEFORE - Calif.-- March2nd
Edited on Fri Jan-30-04 01:55 PM by cthrumatrix
I could care less in Kerry is ahead of Dean by 200 delegated going into the super rich 12 state delegate pie on March 2nd.

Even if Kerry were ahead in all 12 states by 20 pts in the polls...Dean , Kerry and who else can afford should debate - debate debate and tell California about "bush".

Dean is a weapon on truth against Bush...he's smart..articulate and "matter of fact"...calif. has been "snowed in" by Arnie and company.

FWIW...don't stop...play in the key states just to get the message out as in SC last night.

If I had my way "all states" should have a chance to hear these guys like Dean and DK. It would help.

1. Clark would clean up in CA and NY
We don't follow the flyover states. They follow us.

3. "The Dems" don't decide elections
Voters do.

5. I don't think they are planning on canceling the CA primary
They keep going all the way through, as the eventual winner, Kerry, accumulates delegates.

11. Really?
Did he win Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Arizona?

GREENVILLE, S.C. (Reuters) - John Kerry (news - web sites), on a roll after winning the first two Democratic presidential contests, has opened big leads in Missouri and Arizona and is challenging for the top spot in South Carolina and Oklahoma, according to a Reuters/MSNBC/Zogby poll released on Friday.

7. I doubt Clark is going anywhere until after the convention
The only question in my mind is whether he will be heading for the White House with the democratic banner in his hands, or going home (after the election, of course--he'll help out with the campaign even if he's not the nominee) and spending more time with Gert doing "honey, do..." chores and playing with the grandkids.

Like Cincinnatus, the guy George Will and others mock Clark with, and Harry Truman, Clark'll go home after doing his duty to his nation and tend to his own affairs.

12. Personally, I hope Clark goes to Boston with Kerry, as VP nominee
and then on the trail with him after the convention. It will be something more exciting than Clinton/Gore 92.

9. It's a disservice to Californians . . .
when the Crossfire's and Blitzer's of the ho-media start hassling Dean and Clark supporters about when they're going to drop out, how soon, when will they win, etc.

I want to be able to vote and it won't be for Kerry unless at least the two above drop out first. Keep up the support for the candidates!
