>Yes, IMO there are multiple reasons............because he was a little too volatile for the residents of Iowa, because his message was little more confronting and controversial than the Dems liked and because he was shorter than Bush. He also lost a lot of support in the Democratic party because he turned out to be a whiny bitch and couldn't take the heat from the other candidates... See above......"too volatile for residents of Iowa and his message was a little more confronting and controversial than the Dems liked"........I was trying to be diplomatic. <g> ted

re: He also lost a lot of support in the Democratic party because he turned out to be a whiny bitch and couldn't take the heat from the other candidates... There is something to that... but I think he hadn't learned the nuances of being a national candidate (like Bush and Kerry). Still, bottom line, I think the Dems have a better chance confronting Bush than moving in his direction. The first thing you HAVE TO DO is establish that you stand FOR something. Decide what it is, package it, and sell it. John
