Howard Dean won the MoveOn.org presidential primary going away, 44 percent to Dennis Kucinich's 24 percent and John Kerry's 16. For what it's worth, etc.

guess Bush can finish unpacking.
Since no candidate reached 50%, MoveOn says it won’t endorse any candidate. So where is all the PAC money they collected going?
so much for majority vote
or the popular vote
Al Sharpton only got 1677 votes, or 0.53%. Obviously, Dean supporters – aided and abetted by the Secretary of the Internet – intercepted TCP/IP packets nominating those other than Dean and modified them for their nefarious ends. And, there’s that strange Internet outage in Florida.
If pResident Select Dean thinks he can pull this off, he’s got another thing coming! I demand a recount!
Count all the votes!
Count all the votes!
Count all the votes!
[If you can do better, let’s hear it.]
How would a Dean administration compare to the current administration of shrub?
Why worry about it, Croez! Online “votes” are as reliable as plastic forks.
“Al Sharpton only got 1677 votes, or 0.53%. Obviously, Dean supporters blah blah”
no, not neccesarily. mit could just mean that moveon.com users have only mildly bas taste and not atrocious taste
Wonder which one we will get, since Dubya is finished due to Iraqui quaqmire. Does anyone doubt it?
Dubya ain’t finished by a long shot. Watch those WMD’s turn up at just the right time. Keep a close eye on that development.
“How would a Dean administration compare to the current administration of shrub?”
Badly, I think.
Don’t even entertain the thought, Doug. It’s an INTERNET POLL, for heaven’s sake!
The nation’s first Libertarian PRESIDENT!?
Did I miss something?
Holy trogledyte! I must’ve been drugged and stuck in a cave somewhere, during the 4 years (or was it 8) that he was in office.
I MUST have been drugged. I can’t even spell!
(Trogl-o-dyte)
Let’s remember that the nation’s first Libertarian president, Harry Browne, started out by winning a few online polls, so let’s not be so quick to dismiss their significance.
