Howard Dean: 'Bush hurts standing in world opinion'
Myrtle Beach Sun News

I was in London recently giving a speech to a major economic conference of global lenders and borrowers. The news from the audience, comprised of about

40 percent Americans, was not encouraging for President Bush. In a poll on the first day of the conference, a majority of the 1,000 or so attendees said they thought John Kerry would win the November elections. More stunningly, 60 percent of the Americans said they would vote for Kerry, the president was below 30 percent, and the rest were undecided.

The American expatriate community traditionally leans Republican. Many Americans who live in Europe work for big multinational corporations and tend to be conservative on fiscal matters, support American military abroad and free trade - because it is good for their employees.

3. Thanks!
I will never give up on Dean! He's done more for Democracy in one year than just about anyone I know of.

4. Yes he has, and he's only just begun. They'll have documentarys
about him (and the impact he had on politics) for years to come. He woke up America, and we won't go back to sleep! ;)

5. You gonna read Trippi's book?
A documentary on that would be awesome!

I know a lot of Dean supporters are mad at Trippi, but I'm not. I think he just went off the deep-end when it looked like Dean couldn't lose.

6. I've got nothing against Trippi. Dean's campaign was emotional for all
involved.

Does Trippi smear Dean in his book? If so, I guess I would be upset about that. :(

7. I doubt it!
I haven't read it, but in the interviews he's done on TV and radio, he always speaks highly of Dean.

I have read it yet

2. Meanwhile, US companies dream of expanding into foreign markets
I think the hostility pushing back against US global aggression is going to screw our companies. Will the CEOs wake up? Or has the narcotic of $100,000 tax cuts anesthetized their brains?
