Lieberman has perfectly positioned himself as the "Un-Dean" candidate
he's the furthest thing from being Dean… but he hasn't got a shot of stopping him.

1. As far as Democrats go, Kucinich is the "Un-Dean", not Lieberman
Insulting Dean for a week or two doesn't automatically make a person the Un-Dean candidate. Lieberman is a moderate and Dean, love him or hate him, is moderate too. If you're looking for the Un-Dean, the only candidate that makes any sense would be Kucinich because he's liberal.

I do agree though that Lieberman doesn't have a shot at this point.

2. I would disagree.
The farthest from Dean (centrist/conservative) would be Kucinich (very liberal/leftist).

6. Kucinich isn't a leftist...
Hell, he really isn't VERY liberal. IMO very liberal would be an open socialist. Is Kucinich a liberal? Yeah. Is he far left/leftist? Not even close.

3. Lieberman is just the Un-candidate
And the sooner he realizes that, the happier we will all be.

4. Lieberman is "The Un-Done"
Well almost... Look for his dropout speech on the morning of Feb. 4, 2004.
