1 NH Gephardt Supporter's Point of View
I wanted to congratulate Kerry and his supporters for their win, and Edwards and his supporters for a close second. If you guys need anyone in NH, I'll probably get over the loss in time to help out some next weekend.

So... who should I support?

1. Get your Edwards on...
Just my opinion. I've liked the guy from the beginning...

2. Kerry
I believe both are good men but with Gephardt's over-all record being closer to Kerry's... that would be one reason for you to lean his way. Another would be that Kerry has more experience here and abroad.

I think Edwards would make a great VP but in all honesty, if Kerry gets nominated (and its way too early to assume anything at this point), I would like to see him immediately ask Edwards to be his A.G. I'd love to see Edwards in that position... he would be one of the greatest A.G.'s ever.

3. Kucinich! But only if you are truly anti-war.
I think voters are being more pragmatic. Kerry supported the war because he believed the lying President, so I can forgive him if he promises to get us out of Iraq.

6. Not that is means anything...
You should analyze the nuances of their platforms.

Anyway, some cable analyst tonight compared the Iowa campaign strategies of the top four by saying Gephardt/Edwards were on the “beer trail” (working class) and Dean/Kerry were on the “wine trail” (yupi). I thought that was interesting.

And if you’re open to it, I’m sure the Clark campaign could use your support.

7. Kerry has the strengths of Dean and Clark
with none of their disadvantages. Kerry can raise unlimited amounts of money against Bush before July and is solid on policy. Kerry's character is strong and his intellect is sharp.

I want to run the soldier against the deserter!

8. You've Got That Backwards>Clark has The Strengths of Kerry/Edwards/ Dean
with the advantage of NOT being branded a NE Liberal & he is furthest to the Left of the three yet appears as a Moderate.
