The newspapers and other internet sources have reported that Gore will be backing Dean in the upcoming presidential elections. The only people who want Dean to win the democratic nomination more than Dean himself are the republicans!

Sales tax? Tariffs? Joey, you've got to be kidding. At least income tax doesn't destroy businesses. I supportr abolishing sales taxes and tariffs, and lowering income tax. I'm more libertarian than you!

Except these "social" services couldn't possibly be run by non-profit business in the rampant free-capitilst system you wish for, because they would be ruthlessly crushed by for-profit entities. Kinda like the American medical system.

No, social services would still be there, paid for by the People.
But they'd be run through non-profit or for-profit businesses in the private sector.
We'd have a huge sales tax though; and tariffs of some sort.

They also believe in gettiung rid of taxes and social services. So basically he's a libertarian, but without the socially liberal elements.

Joey, I believe in the Libertarian cause.. However I can NOT advocate Drug, and Prostitution legalization. I believe if Libertarians ever run this country they will get exactly what they ask for, Chaos.

Fiscal conservatives don't generally sign in big tax increases; Vermont is one of the highest-taxed states in the country; was then, is now. But I do like Dean's outspokenness, though he curled up like a little baby after the rebel flag comment. Pansy. Anyway, Tim Russert from NBC's Meet The Press (very influential show; Sundays at 9 a.m., NBC) said on Letterman that Dean has a shot ...if the economy and IRaq are bad. Dean said he predicted the economy would suck in 2004, which it doesn't look like (yet at least) it will be ... ...if things are so-so in Iraq and the economy is good, there's a tough race ahead (Russert said this). But, I'm sticking with Gary Nolan regardless: http://www.garynolan.comquote: I predict in 2010 the LP will replace them.
We said this ...in 1980 when Ed Clark ran and received a million votes and 1 percent of the vote. But we switched the year to say ...1990s/2000. Ha.

Dean has a great shot at defeating bush, he's charismatic, lightening in a bottle, savy, and a fiscal conservative. Yep, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he won.

well, tweet, there's an old saying in politics, you can't win a campaign on foreign policy, but you can always loose one on foreign policy.

I think Dean is a great candidate, my only hangup is that he doesnt appear to have that much foreign policy experience. Of course this wont be much of a problem as long as he has enough sense to find a Secretary of State who does.

The Democrats are suffering some important losses.. I predict in 2010 the LP will replace them.
Eh. Though I despise the Republican domination.

Obviously because Dean's the weakest Dem candidate, it's necessary for the GOP to point that out to us for our own good. Thank you for being so generous conservakid. For that favor I'll invite you to my election night party so you can see our pathetic candidate beat Bush.
