Seems to me that while he was a Governor, one must take into account the scale of the operations managed. Heck, there are probably 600,000 people within a 15 mile radius here!

Just a thought....

Hmmm, one must take into the account the old saying "Things are bigger in Texas", Bush has taken that to a whole new level. How's that for thought :Q

Probably 30+ mayors that have more responsibility ;)

Even a couple of CEO's ;)

It's just fun to bash dean and watch all the YABB's come out to play. But I'd rather judge him by his positions than by the population of his state.

Say what you like in Dean's defense, but this guy is completely unelectable.

You would think that the Dems would have learned from the McGovern incident, but apparently not.

Seems that when one doesn't have a defensable response the only option is to go on the attack......

"but this guy is completely unelectable."

That's what people said about Jimmy Carter too.

Carter was not a socialist. Big difference.

Are you going to ignore the similarities between McGovern and Dean's candidacies?

Both were anti-war. Both were crazy lefties. One was trounced by an embattled president. The other is next.

We want governors from small states cause the ones from big states are proving to be disasters.
