The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Howard Dean said Tuesday he has the best chance of beating President Bush because he appeals to supporters of former independent candidates John McCain, Ross Perot and Ralph Nader as well as to Democratic Party faithful.

Dean said he believes his candidacy will energize millions of young people and independents who have been turned off by standard electoral politics.

“We’ve got to bring new people into the electoral process,” Dean said on NBC’s “Today” show. “We’re going to say that to the people of Ralph Nader, ... people who voted for John McCain and Ross Perot. ... and that’s the beginning of the coalition that I think can change the occupancy of the White House.”

Dean was asked about his current high ride in the polls and his high-profile standing in the Democratic contest, evidenced by cover stories in major news magazines.

“All you can do is be who you are and say what you think,” Dean replied when asked if he was vulnerable to the plight of the short-term political phenomenom who fails when the party caucuses and primaries arrive. “We have an enormous number of supporters,” he said.

attacks on Bush, Orlando Sentinel'. It's the show where the guy reads the national morning headlines. May be I got the newspaper name wrong because I don't see the info on the web.

1. If true, we must accept the fact American's are good people but a little clue-less or are not being given the facts.

Solution:
A, Anyone with a brain can figure out if you send out you players 1 at a time onto the field they're going to be swamped. Dems. can't be such big spineless cowards. Sending out 1 at a time to test the waters of attacking Bush. They're going to be eatan alive by the GOP Whore Media. They Dems. need to stick together and all strike at once and keep pounding no matter what some short term polls say.

B. The Dems. have to put a Internet PC in every house in America. Truth, Justice and God are on our side! If everyone had viewed the DU just once a week I am 99.99% sure Junior would be impeached by the end of the month, let alone even being the Repuke nominee. (I don't know how to do this but someone's got to figure it out. Like free donuts and Internet at you local Dems. office. Or use the local library's Internet to show people the true news.)

C. I say go on the offensive against the American Whore Media. A Dem. candidate use fact examples of what stories are being publish overseas and what's not being published in the U.S. Attack the media for being bias and lying for the GOP. What do we have to lose?
