Liberals are not going to beat Bush by themselves.
That lesson has been learned time and time again.
If you want to beat Bush, take away his military issues
by running one or two more moderate war heros against him.
Then he's toast.

Liberals account for something like 30% of the voters, and they are clustered mostly in specific states which are the easiest states for Dems to win. You cant win swing states by pushing an anti-war liberal position.

Bush's weakness on the Iraq War is really about piss-poor planning, unilateralism, dishonesty and arrogance, not Saddam or the war itself. If you run against the war as a whole as Dean is doing, you cannot beat Bush in the general election. Despite all his flaws, Bush projects strength. Strength versus strength is what's needed. Liberals have a very hard time convincing anyone they're strong on defense, or are masculine men. On a primal level, it's about who's the strongest chief on the battlefield.
