Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts was fifth, with 8 percent.

Along with six other Washington Post reporters, I spent the last part of October interviewing voters in different sections of the country. All of us found the same thing. Outside of Iowa and New Hampshire, the field of nine Democrats is basically a blur of undefined faces and voices to those who will elect the next president. Former Vermont governor Howard Dean and retired Gen. Wesley K. Clark were the two names most often mentioned to us -- though it was not uncommon for people to struggle to recall the surnames -- probably because they got the most attention on TV in October.

When Post pollsters Richard Morin and Claudia Deane asked a large sampling of Democrats to evaluate their candidates, the impression of a leaderless field was confirmed. Only four Democrats had managed to break into double digits in support: Dean, Lieberman, Clark and Rep. Dick Gephardt of Missouri. Dean led with just 16 percent; the others were bunched at 12 or 13 percent.
