3. Brilliant analysis
if you're going to engage in gratuitous Dean bashing, at least have something halfway thoughtful to say (or at least lose the Clark moniker- it makes your candidate look bad).

5. Sad but true--
Dean goes up in the south when Sharpton goes after him.

Sharpton does him favors. This is that quirky south--you must remember.

I am not a Dean supporter but do not jump so fast. Sharpton went over the line. I usually defend Sharpton but tonight he was to the point of race baiting. Carol Mosley Braun showed true courage.

12. Gosh, Im still wondering where Clark has been for the last 3 debates....
I actually like Clark, but these Clarkies that attack Dean are getting SOOOOO Old.

My question is: Clark seems vewwy vewwy scayud of perhaps some questions being asked about the School of the Americas, or the involvement on various boards that seem at the LEAST VERY questionable. You wanna compare Deans eesy weensy issues to Clarkes BIG ones?

Lets go!!

Quit attacking Dean if you cant even promote your own candidate.....and tell him to humor us and show up at a debate.

You also might want to stop bashing Dean, because you guys may not care about his votes, but I would sure hope he does.

13. How many people do you think watched the last "joint press conference"
I refuse to dignify these media events by calling them "debates". They are a joke, no one watches after the third or fourth except political junkies and our minds are generally already made up. Clark had nothing to gain by wasting hours being in Iowa to get 3 1/2 minutes out of 2 hours to give his side.

Better he should spend his time in New Hampshire,where he can actually do some good.

15. Any proof of this inflammatory statment? I do think Dean is a winning
formula, but that is not how you meant it.

I also assume this thread will sit here gathering swill all evening?

Poll after poll shows Dean is doing well in the South, in fact better than your candiate. Yet the false claim is made again.

Polls also show Dean does well with moderates and even has some cross over support from Republicans.

Additionally, did you consider Carol M Braun *alienated* this evening? How bout Jesse Jackson Jr, Sheila Jackson Lee, Whoopi Goldberg, Christopher Edley Jr ... *alienated* ?

They all support Howard Dean-with the exception of CM Braun who herself is running for President.

Here is a list of notable *alienated* Dean supporters for you to ponder.

16. Clark's okay. But Kucinich, Edwards, Kerry, and Sharpton
would also do well with the South and moderates.
