Reader comment: <<< It just struck me voting Dean will be the equivalent of voting Nixon in 68: a bit better on environment (say what you like, but Trickie Dickie set up the EPA) and a nightmare on Asia/Israel. All we need now is a Kissinger clone to sleaze the US out of Iraq 'with honor.' Any comers? >>> prorev.com

Kerry now back in the lead, Dean third. Bush tumbling fast. More people said they would vote against President Bush (news - web sites) in 2004 than support him, according to a CNN-Time poll released Friday. The nationwide survey found that 41 percent said they would definitely vote against Bush while 28 percent said they would back the incumbent president. Twenty-five percent said they could vote either way. The same poll found people evenly split on the question of whether a Democrat can unseat the president. Last fall, 36 percent said they could see a Democrat winning the presidency and 49 percent said they could not. Among the Democratic candidates, John Kerry, Joe Lieberman (news - web sites) and Howard Dean (news - web sites) were bunched at the top of the poll that showed more people undecided — 21 percent. Kerry, the Massachusetts senator who formally announced his candidacy Tuesday, had 16 percent; Lieberman, the Connecticut senator, was at 13 percent and Dean, the former Vermont governor, was at 11 percent. Rep. Dick Gephardt (news - web sites) of Missouri and Sen. John Edwards (news, bio, voting record) of North Carolina were at 7 percent. Al Sharpton was at 5 percent, Sen. Bob Graham (news, bio, voting record) of Florida was at 4 percent and Carol Moseley Braun was at 4 percent. Rep. Dennis Kucinich (news, bio, voting record) of Ohio was at 3 percent. In mid-July, Lieberman, Kerry, Dean and Gephardt were in a virtual tie. The poll of 883 registered voters conducted Sept. 3-4 had a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
