1. Dean is the first "punk" candidate, the anger "is" the message.

We can do better.

7. Unfair Bill

"Punk"? I don't think so. Dean has got a young following, just like the guy from Georgia did in the mid-70s. The guy I campaigned for for gov in Vietnam in 1970. Buckhead? I used to live there. Colonial Homes. The old Georgia Tech days.

big difference.

4. I think angry can win a primary

because there are so many candidates you need to stand out. However I'm not so sure about a General Election...

5. Didn't you read the rules?

It appears that something has happened to the GD: 2004 Primary forum, and it is not currently available.

We are aware of the problem, and we are working to fix it. While that forum is gone, you are still NOT permitted to Discuss the primary in the regular GD forum.

In the meantime, please consider going to do something useful for your candidate of choice, rather than flaming on an Internet message board.

Once we get the forum back up, we'll discuss what we're going to do next in there.

Thank you for your understanding.

Anger at Bush fuels caucus campaigns

By George E. Condon Jr.

DES MOINES, Iowa – Nobody could be nicer, warmer, or more welcoming to an out-of-stater than Iowans Don Ramus, Myron Hull, Max Lovell, and Richard Bennett.

Until you mention the name of President Bush.

That is when eyes narrow to slits, veins stand out on necks, and anger rushes to the surface.

Ramus, Hull, Lovell and Bennett don't agree on everything and, in fact, disagree on the best candidate in Monday's Democratic presidential caucuses. But, interviewed separately at campaign rallies last week, they quickly flashed the one trait that has emerged as the most powerful unifying factor in the Democratic campaign: a deep, abiding, visceral antipathy toward the president.

"He is a little, arrogant person," said Ramus, a 68-year-old retired claims adjuster, at a rally for Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina. "When he said 'Bring 'em on' to the terrorists – well, he's not the one fighting and dying over there."

"You're darn right I'm angry," said the former plant superintendent. "When he got into office I had a pretty good stock market. I thought I was living comfortably, but it ain't that way now."

9. I'll take and own the anger which Howard Dean speaks of without

a second thought. I do know that Dean is a Democrat. I have yet to of seen Clark contribute, develope, participate or manage one Democratic political issue.

We deserve better.
