1. Slightly biased poll don't you think? But it was intended that way, right? n/t

2. It was kinda tongue in cheek.
I personally think he should've stayed. The Repukes have far worse scandals and still stick around - see Larry Craig. I'm tired of the double standard where our best guys have to back out and theirs don't. Plus I know the Repukes hate him so much more than Dean, (maybe because he was such an effective Senator). I really think he should be still be the nominee.

3. Hell Yes!
And it was not because of taxes. He would have been grilled about his ties with UnitedHealth - the poster boy for what is wrong with our current health care system. An insurance company that paid $100 million to its CEO while screwing patients and doctors. Even Andrew Cuomo recently went after them.

Daschle should have never been appointed. Good riddance.
