The 2004 US Presidential Election
July 12, 2003
Cause For Depression?
A July 8-9 CBS News Poll (go here for the details) asked this question:
"From what you have heard or read, can you name any of the candidates running for the 2004 Democratic nomination for president?" If "Yes": "Who is the first one who comes to mind?"A grand total of 34% of respondents could name a candidate. And here's more news for the Democractic Party: more Republicans could name Democratic candidates than could Democrats.
Oh ... and Dean and Kerry won the top-of-mind-recall question, with each getting 7%.

Lieberman, Kerry and Gephart are more consistantly at the top of the lists, which probably means one of them will run against Bush, but I thought(mistakenly, as this shows me) Dean would be up there as well and as much, with Gephart where Dean is.
The frightening thing is that whenever Hillary Clinton appeared, she was always at the top and at double or better than the runner up, and a lot of political analysts seem to think that if she ran in the primaries, she would win by a landslide.
Scary.
