4. I like his style of governing
I don't necessarily agree with Dean on every issue, but I'm mostly attracted to his style of governing. Dean governs for the long-term. For example, to reduce long-term spending on prisons he invested in programs for young kids. Currently those programs have cut the child abuse rate in Vermont in half.

He is also a pragmatist who isn't governed by pure ideology, which has a strong appeal for me.

Granted if you care purely about issues, Kucinich is more of a traditional liberal. Personally, I'm more center-left, than straight liberal.
