Clark/Dean/Kerry/Edwards comments from ABCNote: |
|
Clark - told a New Hampshire audience that if he were elected president he would "go to Iraq myself personally and I would develop an exit strategy that gives us a success and lets us downsize our commitment there." Asked what would he do about Iraq if elected president today, Clark said he would "change the Secretary of Defense." ...Clark's new book... "accuses the Bush administration of carrying out a wrenching turn in U.S. foreign policy away from traditional American principles."
Dean: ...he would like to balance the budget in his first term even if it means limiting spending on domestic programs dear to Democrats...but Dean said "he might have to keep the budget in the red beyond four years to fund his plan for mass transit, renewable energy, road construction, broadband telecommunications and school building." "'I am determined to get rid of the deficit,' Dean said in an hourlong interview with reporters and editors from The Associated Press. Later he added, 'I am willing to run a deficit longer than I'd like to in order to create jobs.'"
Kerry:- ...Shaheen...is not likely to bring along large numbers of the young, angry Democrats who are drawn to Dean ..she vocally supported President Bush's tax cuts and his leadership in the war on terror ...By adding Shaheen to his team he risks (making himself look more moderated)...."
Edwards: - "As for South Carolina, it's simple, according to South Carolina state senator Robert Ford. 'We're going to win so big in South Carolina it means the rest of the south is going to follow suit, which means we'll get the nomination. Then all we have to do is win California.'"

1. Damn, Kerry Can't Catch a Break |
|
"The Note" slams him on the Shaheen endorsement? I think that's pretty good news, actually.

4. That wasn't the Note editorializing. It was a quote froma news article |
|
You guys need to learn to read. It's a quote not an editorial remark from The Note. Those who think Shaheen's endorsement is no big deal are fooling themselves. They are also making it clear that they no nothing, absolutely nothing, about NH politics.
Her endorsement is what won the state for Gore. She is the, without question, the most popular democrat in NH. Anyone want to argue? bring it on. People that bash the endorsement are just jealous because their bat isn't swelling like it used to.

really, really needs an adjustment. No one said anything that could be construed as provocative. Please stop constantly spoiling for a fight.

as an ABB candidate. I'm becoming extremly digusted by the infighting. Edwards showed tremendous class in the last debate. It made me take a closer look. I know some trial lawyers here were looking at him early on. Don't know if they still are, but they would be a big help for him here. Being the northern most southern state, MO could be part of his southern strategy. It could be interesting.
