Whether this is what ROVE (is he getting fitted for handcuffs yet?) really believes or WANTS us to believe he believes, it's getting old. Was going to title this, "Would a REAL Dem Say 'LIBERATION of Iraq'?" But a more attentive re-reading yielded that the supposed quotation from the Democrat had ended and it was just the NY Post wingnut gossip queen who was claiming that 1) DEAN is the MOST LIBERAL and 2) outspoken against the LIBERATION OF IRAQ.
Native VT-ers have said here and on the yak shows that DEAN's record was one of Liberal Repuke or Conservative Dem. And as for being AGAINST LIBERATION, what a loaded piece of language--------only TRAITORS would be against LIBERATION, no? It's more the anti-Shrub energy force than the anti-war thing that he originally tapped into.

WITH Howard Dean sprinting away from the rest of the Democratic presidential candidates, Sen. Hillary Clinton can now relax and start planning for 2008 - confident that Dean will go down in flames. "Dean is McGovern without the folksy charm," said one observer, referring to George McGovern, the Democrat who carried only one state (Massachusetts) against Richard Nixon in 1972. "This is going to save us a lot of money," said a Democrat who normally makes substantial campaign contributions. Dean is the
most liberal of the Democrats in the race and the most outspoken against the U.S.
liberation of Iraq. But, according to a Zogby poll of New Hampshire voters, he is 21 points ahead of his closest rival, Sen. John Kerry, and pulling away. The numbers are even more surprising since Kerry is from neighboring Massachusetts. "He's New Hampshire's third senator," said one Democrat.
