11. No.
I am not going to be rail-roaded by a hand-selected and DLC groomed military-industrial stooge to defend the Establisment status quo - who has demonstrated NO understanding or grasp of domestic policy and who will be savaged by the Right on past military bungling. it is a joke.

I am sorry but he may may be parading around in a general's uniform but he ain't wearing a stitch.

I see potential in Dean's purpose as an opportunity for the Democratic party--encompassing a big tent, to right this party again. It may not be progressive enough for me personally, but it is the best chance we have to realistically reverse course.

If it came to it I might even consider one of the other candidates who demonstrated a solid Democratic record and worked their way up the ranks but I will not be dazzled by a military brass band and the attendant hoopla to bow to another candidate served up on a platter.
