If Edwards beats Dean in Wisconsin, should Dean drop out?
In other words, if Wisconsin ends up 1. Kerry 2. Edwards 3. Dean

2. NO.
It's Howard's decision and I will back him until whenever.

But, his supporters have a say in his campaign....

Because, that's what Grass Roots candidates do.

3. Should have already dropped out
Look, Clark has consistently finished higher than Dean. Clark knew it was time to go...time for Dean to smell the coffee.

6. Sorry.
Non-supporters of DFA does not have a say in the decisions of one, Howard Dean.

And they should keep it so.

Thank you!

16. No he hasn't
Dean finished above Clark in Iowa, New Hampshire, Michigan, Washington State, Maine, and South Carolina. Maybe your defintion of consistently beating Dean but I sure don't think so. I also think we beat him in Deleware and Missouri.

4. No. Dean is a 'meme' candidate now
He must go after Kerry for being too soft on Bush, so Kerry will then have the credibility to kick Bush in the nuts during the GE.

Dean is also shoring up actual positions that Kerry would need to use against Bush.

7. Dean should stay in as long as he has the money
in order to stop the most pro-war pro-Patriot Act candidate from overtaking the second most pro-war candidate.

12. By all means no!
If it comes down to the two man race Edwards supporters keep saying...well. Those of us who want transparent government and answers are going to be very angry.

13. Dean should drop out now.
He's been utterly rejected by Democratic voters, and will be in WI.

Now it's an issue of class.

17. Dean is the best chance of beating Bush.
Kerry can't do it. Too liberal. and kind of flaky
