Lieberman leads in Ohio - The fashionable Democrat hopefuls, Wesley Clark and Howard Dean, are getting smoked in the latest Ohio poll released Nov 10. Lieberman leads with 18%, followed by Gephardt (14%), Kucinich (12%), Dean (9%), Kerry (9%), Sharpton (6%), Clark (6%), Braun (4%), and Edwards (1%). I guess for Howard Dean, there just aren't enough metrosexual and confederate flag voters in Ohio.

Comments ...
A gut shot to Lieberman.
"Al Gore endorsed Howard Dean's bid for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination on Tuesday."
Here's the scary part.
" "We need to remake the Democratic Party, we need to remake America," Gore said."
Into what, I don't want to know.
The question is, why is this news? What is news is that Al Gore believes his words mean something.

During last night's Democrat debate, Al Sharpton said, "I know Al Gore and Howard Dean like the Internet. Well, www.bossism.com doesn't work on my computer."

Lieberman uses the capture of Saddam Hussein to attack Dean. Joe said:
"Hallelujah, praise the Lord. This is something that I have been advocating and praying for for more than twelve years, since the Gulf War of 1991. Saddam Hussein was a homicidal maniac, a brutal dictator, who wanted to dominate the Arab world and was supporting terrorists.
This news also makes clear the choice the Democrats face next year. If Howard Dean had his way, Saddam Hussein would still be in power today, not in prison, and the world would be a more dangerous place.
If we Democrats want to win back the White House and take this country forward, we have to show the American people that we're prepared to keep them safe. I consistently supported Saddam's removal for the past decade, and am prepared to do what it takes to win the war on terrorism at home and abroad."
