Well Kerry is two for two. I'm not positive who I will vote for but at this point I lean Dean. My silver lining in all of this so far is the fact that in both contests the voter turnout has been high so far, New Hampshire and Iowa. This probably scares the Bushies quite a bit. I think it shows that the non right-wing Americans are not happy with the President. So Independents, Democrats and liberal "republicans" are all in play. I firmly believe that if more Americans would vote, and have their votes counted, we would have completely different leadership in this country.
