Poll question: If Dean is the nominee, should your candidate endorse him?
The "raise your hand if Dean can beat Bush" question response makes me wonder if any of them will.

2. All of the candidates should endorse the eventual
nominee. If Dean is not the nominee he should also endorse whoever is the Nom.

3. My candidate is Dean, so my response is
if Dean does not get the nomination he should immediately endorse whoever does.

4. I support Dean
Dean should endorse whoever the nominee is, if it's not him, and vice-versa; it's about being b[]Democrats, people!

:hi:

7. I can-
It's pretty obvious that at least a few of the Dean bashers are actually Republicans. It come through in their choice of phrases.

They all will. Stop thinking people want to keep Dean out more than they want Bush out. Primary fights are brutal affairs, but when they're over, they're over. When the time comes no Democratic candidate will bite the party's nose off to spite its face.

And yes, even Holy Joe.

10. Yes
I would expect mine to do so. But I guess it depends on the candidate and wouldn't hold it against them. JMO.

13. Yes, of course.
All the other candidates should endorse whomever comes away with the nod. One thing we should hear at every debate is, "Whoever wins this one MUST win the next one." Their lack of unity pisses me off. Getting rid of Bush is one of the most important things for the future of humanity. (No, I DON'T think that's an overstatement.)

14. Huh?
Who the hell would say no? I hope they're trolls, and not real Democrats. I'm not a Dean supporter, but Democrats are Democrats, and we've got to whatever we can to get a Democrat in office on January 20, 2005.

15. I certainly hope so
Last weekend I was at the Florida Democratic Convention. Before Clark and Dean arrived the Clarkies and the Deanies were having a slogan-off (served best with beef).

Pro-Clark slogans countered by pro-Dean slogans at some point everyone chanted "Bush must go!" a preview of Boston if I have ever seen one!

16. Yes
They will, they'll raise money, they'll fight their hearts out. The cockroaches have been doing that for 30 years, they wouldn't stop now.

19. Twenty percent "no"?
I'm very scared, regardless of the candidate, seeing that figure.
