Dean Retires, Sort Of...

We...Are...Not...Going...Away.

What is with Dean's robotic syntax? Is he channeling Al Gore?

Yawn.

Meanwhile:


Bush 48%
Kerry 43%

February 18, 2004--President George W. Bush now leads Massachusetts Senator John F. Kerry by five points in the latest Rasmussen Reports Presidential Tracking Poll. As of this morning, Bush attracts support from 48% of the nation's likely voters while Kerry is the choice for 43%.

Today's reading is the largest lead for either candidate since John Kerry became the Democrat's front-runner. For most of February, the two candidates have been essentially even. Three days ago, Kerry assumed a modest lead that now appears to be statistical noise.

Kerry enjoyed an enormous bounce from positive coverage during the Primary campaign to draw even with Bush. However, in the race for the Democratic nomination, he lost ground among Democrats nationally over the past several days.

Looking through the questions and responses in this poll, one might posit that the fat lady hasn't sung, Edwards may still have a shot at upsetting Kerry on Super Tuesday.
