53. Dean 18% vs. Kerry 38% is a BIG loss for Dean....Dean cannot
win mid-west voters....

if you want to win the White House....think about this:

bush* has raised over $200 Million dollars and he has NOBODY running against him in a reTHUGlican primary....

if the Democratic cannot unite at this time, save their 'little' bits of money to fight bush...then we all loose...

it's a very old political trick...and here on DU, some just push that trick on all our young inexperienced political activists
....preying on the young to destroy the unity needed to win the WH....

there may have been a chance for Dean had he gotten 'close' to second place...but he wasn't 'close'...he lost by 2 to 1, which is a MAJOR loss...and now, some try to keep draining away as much as they can from the Kerry winning campaign....



the truth is that Kerry will now pick a VP...and it might be Edwards...and Kerry (with this major mid-west win) might get the endorsement from Gebhardt, especially after Kerry gave such gracious words to Gebhardt in his victory speech....

it's tough to loose....most of us OLD political activists have many losses to cry over...but I have often joined the winning team after a great loss...that's how politics works... if Dean won as BIG as Kerry did, I would have quickly joined Dean...put your creative talents into winning the White House, rather than causing further divisions...that's what many promised...the time is NOW...anyone who tells you different is telling big LIES, and trying to pull an OLD political trick on you...

come join us....
