		In his bid for the 2004 Democratic presidential nomination, the smallish man (5 feet 8) from the smallish state (population 600,000) is polling big in the early-contest states of Iowa and New Hampshire.
		Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean said Friday that his 17-year-old son and four other teenagers were cited in a burglary for attempting to steal liquor from a Vermont country club.
		Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean has cultivated -- and developed -- an image of being a straight talker, someone who shoots from the proverbial hip without first running his thoughts by a focus group.

		The Democratic hopefuls include several from the Northeast (which hasn't produced a president in more than 40 years), two Southerners, a Midwesterner, one from the Mountain West, and an African-American who is not Jesse Jackson.
		SEN. JOSEPH I. The most familiar face among the declared or prospective candidates for the 2004 Democratic nomination is Joseph I. Lieberman, the Democratic nominee for vice president in 2000 and a three-term U.S. senator from Connecticut.
		Three years into his second term, he challenged Walter Mondale for the 1984 Democratic presidential nomination and lost, but not before giving the former vice president a serious scare with his call for "new ideas," particularly a sweeping reform of the military.

	View from the Hill Online - Representative Jan Schakowsky, 9th District, Illinois (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
		Seven of the nine declared candidates for the 2004 Democratic presidential nomination addressed the estimated 1,500 attendees in what may have been the largest and most boisterous gathering of the party's left wing in three decades or more.
		Several of the presidential aspirants, notably including former Gov. Howard Dean of Vermont and Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, trotted out the standard liberal line that the last thing the country needs is two Republican parties.
		Although one Democratic member of Congress, Rep. Jan Schakowsky of Illinois, ignited the crowd with perhaps the most fiery speech of the conference, the party's congressional leadership came in for its share of criticism for not standing up the Republican president.

		And while the Democrats' 2003 invisible primary didn't produce many outright casualties, Dean's early success in rallying the anti-war wing of the party was a deathblow to the prospects of Sen. Bob Graham of Florida, who entered the race late and exited early when his own anti-war cries failed to attract crowds.
		When Democratic candidates sought guidance on how they could win the endorsement of the largest union in the AFL-CIO, Gina Glantz, who was assistant to SEIU President Andy Stern for strategic issues and political action, handed them a list of the union's 62 executive board members.
		The detachment of most regular Democrats from the invisible primary is but one reason why some observers worry about that precursor period's ability to speed up the race and decide the party's standard-bearer.

	Tilting Democrats in the Presidential Race
		Now, the Los Angeles Times reported in late June, "the centrist 'New Democrat' movement is struggling to maintain its influence in the party as the 2004 presidential race accelerates." DLC stalwart Sen. Joe Lieberman is getting nowhere.
		It would be difficult to find any organization of Democrats more deserving of the "elitist, interest-group" tag than the DLC, which has long been funded by oil, chemical, insurance and military-contracting corporations – and has served their interests.
		One of the key "New Democrats" is DLC favorite John Breaux, a senator from Louisiana who distinguished himself by trying to protect deregulation measures approved in early June by the Federal Communications Commission.

	LaRouche Becoming the Issue In the Democratic Party
		Lyndon LaRouche, who is seeking the 2004 Democratic Presidential nomination, returned on Feb. 23-25 to the state of Arkansas, where he garnered more than 22% of the vote in the last Democratic Presidential primary.
		The Democratic Party is beginning to fissure on the issue of Lyndon LaRouche, as his Jan. 28th State of the Union speech on the war and the economy is circulating to thousands of Democratic National Committee (DNC) members, delegates and labor and Black Caucus leaders.
		The candidate's Presidential campaign committee, LaRouche in 2004, having mailed his State of the Union and his open letter to the DNC, to all DNC members and delegates to the 2000 Democratic Party National Convention, is now sending them out to more than 3500 Democratic state legislators around the country.

		Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean answers a question during last night's debate at Pace University in New York.

	Sen. Kerry Revs Up For 2004 - CBS News
		Democrats and independent analysts say Kerry must become better known nationally to successfully campaign for the nomination, possibly by emerging as the party's point man on international affairs.
		The Citizen Soldier Fund is named for those who fought in World War II and built the nation in the postwar period, a model of patriotic sacrifice that Kerry frequently invokes in speeches.
		Along with Gore, Lieberman, Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina and House Democratic leader Dick Gephardt of Missouri, Kerry is among the more active potential candidates who have already visited states with early presidential contests such as Iowa and New Hampshire.

	What they really mean by "electability"
		Here was a candidate who won his support by insisting that the Democratic Party would have to change course and be more combative...looking for endorsements from Democrats who are as responsible as any for the party’s move to the right.
		At the same time, for those who are taking the primaries seriously--and this includes a disproportionately large number of progressives and even radicals who have decided to go with the Democrats in 2004 in the hope of getting rid of Bush--the issue of "electability" has clearly become the main consideration.
		The talk about "electability" is an acknowledgement of all this--that the Democrats are likely to choose a presidential candidate that millions of the party’s most loyal voters will have to hold their nose to vote for.
