Dean supporter but I agree about MTP (somewhat)
The statement about defense spending surprised me. Those comments have a nasty way of coming back to haunt a candidate (the infamous "read my lips" pledge).

I am skeptical of Kucinich only because of what I have heard about him bankrupting Cleveland (please correct me if I'm wrong). Fiscal responsibiility should be a major concern as we face a record deficit.

Dean ran a state, albeit a small one, and there are many parallels between being a governor/president. He ran a tight ship, and has experience with health care which is and will continue to be a major issue.

I have to disagree about him not giving a straight answer on MTP. He stuttered and his composure was not great, but nothing he said was evasive or false. To me he appears intelligent and forthcoming.
