dean, that rat bastard!

Clark now in third place. Edwards's campaign is already strong enough that I don't think being fourth, especially such a close fourth, is going to hurt him.

Lieberman is out, according to various sources. Clark can't be far behind. Edwards can hang on until the southern primaries, and Kerry and Dean are close enough that Dean can hold on. Welcome to the three-way race! I was really hoping for a 2nd place Sharpton finish though.

I hope Clark can hang on for a little while. My dream is to see Dean fall off the face of the earth to make a three-way race among Kerry, Edwards and Clark but I know that won't happen

I found an article that discussed ratfucking a bit. If any of y'all read "All the President's Men," ratfucking was the term used to describe campaign sabotage. Things like making harassing phone calls and sending out offensive mailings pretending to be from an opponent's campaign. I think it was Dean who got ratfucked, which is hugely disappointly to me. I'd like to think it was all Lieberman or Kucinich.

I know politics are dirty, and presidential elections are the dirtiest, but I hate to actually read about it. I know they're all doing it, but UGH.

Republican Primary Results:

Bush = 94%
14 other opponents = ~6%

From looking at the CNN website, It appears that Kerry is going to win it...surprised right?

Interesting to see that Dean appears to be in a very strong second place, not too far behind Kerry. I suppose hes not at a total loss with his campaign........yet.

Heh, I'd vote for Sharpton just to see him dance on stage again.

I know. I think it's so low to do those things.

It might be the DLC behind it.

unless kucinich, sharpton or any other canidate, even a republican like john buchanan that was against the iraq war since the start and has a chance, dean will keep being my top choice

also dean needs to stop trying to make up for his nutty speech last week and keep telling the truth that the corporate media hyped it up

80% of what? Do you mean that number above? That means that 80 people wrote George Bush's name in on the Democratic primary ticket. The Republicans have their own ticket.
