MESSAGE BOARD Who will win?
Who do you think will win the New Hampshire primary? Why?
Page 18 Kerry will win. Oddly enough, Dean has too much support for an unqualified individual. The Pres. is Commander in Chief of the armed forces. I, for one, want someone who has military experience in addition to the political savvy. Dean has no military experience, and makes me cringe whenever he speaks, since you know the rebuttal and clarifications will come only hours away. And the call for outsiders is ludicrous. "I don't know how the system works, therefore vote for me"?? With that kind of thinking, you might's well write in "Joe Walsh" Fred, Waltham I hope Dean wins. although, the media might have done him in. 24/7 news coverage has turned into a circus. This campaign is beginning to run like a bad reality TV show... Can you blame the media, though? No. We hang on to every juicy detail. We (Americans) are dumb. Chris, Woburn John Kerry is a is a big fat obnoxious PHONEY! He portrays himself as a regular joe, huntin' good ole' boy when he's nothing less than a total METROSEXUAL with a $200 haircut, $40k wine cellar, nantucket home, louisberg squ./beacon hill home, chills with James Taylor - PULLLEZZE stop making me SICK! uggh. Solja, cambridge I hope Clark wins big. He is the only one with courage, integrity, leadership, vision, compassion, smarts AND electability. He is also charismatic and charming. The more I learn of him, the more I like him. Too bad he came in so late! If he sticks it out, most of the other states will vote for him. No one outside new england likes Dean or Kerry. They hate Kerry. Edwards is charming, maybe too charming. He is a good VP candidate. CLARK/EDWARDS 2004!!!! Matthew, Newton Wesley Clark should win, he is the only one who can save us from the dreadful path our country has been walking. But in this world, good does not always triumph. We shall see. Naomi I am pulling for Al Sharption, though I have a sneaking suspicion that Kerry will win. Tom, East Boston I really hope Clark doesn't win today. One minute, he's a Republican; the next, he's a Democrat. One minute he's supporting the war in Iraq; the next, he's opposing it. One minute, he's the leading force in Kosovo, a conflict opposed by Michael Moore; the next minute, Michael Moore is one of his key supporters. Clark: "Dude, where's my backbone?" Karen, Brighton Closer than it looks between Kerry and Dean. Dean must prevail in the long run because Bush & Co. will tag Kerry with the big "L" and wipe him out. Dean has integrity, toughness and spirit along with lots of executive experience in government. He'll give us a real health plan, will avoid unnecessary foreign adventures and will gain respect from other nations (not fear like that idiot in the White House today). Dean will fix the economy for the rest of us who aren't wealthy. Harry, Hermosa Beach, CA The idea of voting in a primary to "potentially" have the "delegates" vote for in accordance with the popular vote seem a bit shaky at best. Shouldn't the American people choose which candidate they want based on popular vote so they don't have to "trust" the delegates to vote in accordance with how they voted? When you vote in a primary are you actually voting for a particular candidate? Technically, no. You're voting for the delegates that will attend the nominating convention. Delegates are assigned according to the size of the state. im my opinion this system is not good. I want my vote to count! trent, boston One Bush-hater says "I can't stand the way he took decisive action against terrorist states & organizations." It's people like you that should be strapped to a chair and forced to watch the video of 9/11 on a weekly basis. WMD or not, removing Saddam was good for the world. And by the way, Bush's actions were based, in part, on information gathering done by the Clinton administration. This wasn't some personal vendetta. Matt, Quincy
