31. I'm attacking the bogus argument for Dean's electability in a general
election.

All the candidates have messages about Fiscal responsibility, environmental protection, etc. but his platform coupled with his image wouldn't get more than a fraction of the independant vote, barring complete disaster from Bush(in middle americas eyes not yours)

he's exciting a constituancy that is singular and not even close to a plurality of america.

Much in the same way McGovern did.

Primaries and general elections are not parallel, and none of the Dean supporters get that
