Reply #50: Yes, Dean is a better person than Kerry [View All]

[Larkspur]

Even though both are from patrician backgrounds, Dean is more honorable and humane. He made attempts to build relationships with those not of his class or race and has the attitude of making our institutions work for the people.

Kerry likes to talk tough, but when we needed him to stand up to Bush & Co, he opted out or caved in, like he did on IWR, Prescription drug bill, and NCLB.

If Kerry is the nominee, he'll get my vote and whatever effort I do to help my Dem Town Comm with the 2004 races, but I won't help Kerry's campaign directly. And when Bush & Rove blast Kerry in the press, I'll be laughing AT Kerry, not defending him.
