Bush and Dean seen as farther away from average voter

Dean was seen as further from the average Americans' political views than President Bush, according to the poll by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press. But some other leading Democratic candidates were closer to the average voter's views than Bush.

Other candidates like Clark, John Kerry, Dick Gephardt, John Edwards and Joe Lieberman were relatively close to the average voter in a general election, while Bush was seen as more conservative.

snip...

Six in 10 voters said they expect Bush to win re-election in November, up from 47 percent who said that in September. Twelve years ago, 66 percent said Bush's father would win re-election.
