OT: Iowa Caucus, Howard Dean

Dill, I have to disagree. One Caucas does not make a nomination. Howard Dean is now considered the underdog going into New Hampshire. Dean could very well smoke Kerry in New Hamphshire. Kerry is vulnerable because he gave GDubbya Carte Blanche on iraq, Then he turns around and doesn't even bother to oppose (Vote) on the 87 Billion dollar appropriation for iraq. How responsible is that ? Neither iowa or New Hamphshire are good bell-weathers of who will get the nominations so we will see how this progresses.

For a relative unknown to national politics Howard Dean has emerged as a formibidable contender.

I must say that the junior John Edwards did an outstanding job coming from behind to take second in the iowa caucus. Edwards is the Dark Horse that could end up pulling in front if Dean and Kerry faulter.

IMHO, Anyone of these potential presedential candidates would be a better leader than Dubbya.
