I'll still vote for Bush in 2004 because I think national security is more important, but his taking away democrat issues by acting like a democrat won't make me really happy about it.

Plus I'm not sure if Bush will continue his spending spree, I think he tried it hoping for his 'new tone' and since the very people he empowered to spend like Ted Kennedy are still being assholes he may well back off. Also he DID promise things like a drug plan, and I think so far he has kept ALL of his campaign promises, or as close as any presidential candidate in my memory.

With the latest moon proposal, it certainly seems like there's no end in site to Bush's liberal spending.
But don't worry, America - we'll get a Democrat back into the oval office to clean up the Republicans' fiscal irresponsibility, just like we did last time.

Anyway, I have to agree that Bush has dissappointed me with his spending ways and that is one thing I miss from the Clinton years: A balanced budget. Unfortunately, I don't see a Dem I would vote for this time around.

Dean, as governor got fairly high marks from the Cato Institute for his fiscal responsibility. He got B's through his term, except for his last one. Where, admittedly, in his last term he got a C. But I think he has a decently proven track record of fiscal responsibility. The state had a surplus throughout his terms, and the C I think is a result of him pushing healthcare for uninsured kids in his state.
And it is no liability that he comes from a small state, (which some think are easier to balance). Clinton came from a small state too and he did a damn good job. |

Sparhawk,
I did consider Clark, but two things that make me lean against him are his stance on gun control, "if you want a gun, join the army" and an article I read the other day which caught him in an out in out lie where he currently says he never supported the Iraq war, yet he is on record before congress in 2002 supporting Bush in Iraq. So my impression is that he is willing to say whatever to get elected. Not that it makes him any different from most politicians, but the smart ones don't make it so obvious.

The more I learn about Clark the less there is to like about him.
The other generals hated him, he was relieved of duty, and he is obviously lying on his Iraq stance. The ONLY reason democrats 'like' him is they hope the 'ex-general' effect can defeat Bush. Its pure desperation and wishfull thinking.
