I'm a liberal who wants to beat Bush in 2004....
My views are more in line with Dennis Kucinich on may things. I love Kucinich's fiery spirit and his "working man" allegiance. Will Kucinich win? I can only guess that he won't.

I'm extremely liberal.

I cannot expect a population with all its economic classes to have the same views as I have. So the question really is who can beat Bush and still retain some, if not most of the ideals I hold dear?

I believe that person is Wesley Clark.

He takes away the "military card" from the repubs. From what I read I understand he is a "liberal" on social issues.

From what I have seen of him on CNN and Meet The Press, he was not in favor of this war. He was critical of Bush's mishandling of the UN debacle and comes across as a much more diplomatic, charismatic politician than Bush could ever hope to be.

I beleive Clark is the "Anti-Bush" and will be the one that can return sanity to our otherwise insane, seemingly out-of-control gov't.

2. Amen Brotha!
I agree 100% Clark would take away Bush's only issue, national security. He also would be the only candidate with a chance that can attack Bush on the war without being called a pinko by the so called "liberal press".



Sidwill's weekly Democratic hopeful ratings:

1. With a Bullet! Clark
2. Kerry
3. Dean
4. who cares..................
