Hmm, region is important, specifically South...needs Washington experience who knows some of the people a President needs to work with...able to be a President in own right...yeah I'd say so :)

I think the Dems running have more in common than many seem to believe. And I think the Graham/Dean governor connection and focus on federal/states rights and anger toward unfundated mandates for states plus the anti War with Iraq stance, and a concern for rural voters, definitely Graham & Dean share some basic fundamental values. And balanced budgets are extremely important for both, Graham balanced all eight budgets of his as Governor, and Dean loves balancing budgets, too, so they are common linkages for sure!
