Reply #62: Did Dean win an open race for Governor? Did he win a race

[AP]

challenging the incumbant?

No to both, right?

I think I'm offering a decent theory in response to the quetion.

Was the question asked to ferrret out anyone who might not offer some super-positive commentary on Dean, or was it asked to hash out interesting theories?

I stand by my theory. There is something qualitatively different about running for Gov and Lt Gov. I guarantee you, Gov is higher profile race and the candidate's identities are made much more apparent to voters (who would spend more or as much money to run for Lt Gov?).

As for responding in kind. Read my first post to which I was responding and tell me, do you honestly think you were responding 'in kind'?
