Some astonishing numbers from Cato:

<<< In inflation-adjusted terms, Clinton had overseen a total spending increase of only 3.5 percent at the same point in his administration. More importantly, after his first three years in office, non-defense discretionary spending actually went down by 0.7 percent. This is contrasted by Bush's three-year total spending increase of 15.6 percent and a 20.8 percent explosion in non-defense discretionary spending. >>>

Dean is unelectable. As governor he sanctioned civil unions in VT which I expect will not play well in the heartland....
