Yes, I do think Wesley is the only one that can absolutely beat Bush, but I could'nt support him for just that reason. For instance, if he was pro-life or advocating unilateral foreign policy, I could'nt get behind that. Also, I think his foreign policy/diplomatic acumen will be sorely needed once * is sent back to Crawford. Whoever kicks that evil carpetbagger out of office is going to have a lot of work to do to get our foreign policy and allied relations back on track, and I think Wesley is the best man for that job. As a Bio major, I also admire his intelligence and his deep interest in science. His optimism and positive vision give me hope. Plus, he's a General who dares to wear a "Dissent is Patriotic" button :P

ps- there's more than that, but I have to get off of DU and get back to writing my paper on "the future of U.S. Humanitarian Interventions Abroad", which is giving me major writer's block right now! :-)
