Comment on Tomorrow he’ll be yesterday’s man by Mark Steyn (05/07/2003)

Howard Dean has been propelled to a leading role in the Democratic race because millions of Americans realize that George W Bush took America into an ill-considered war. Howard Dean, for all his faults has opposed the Iraq War, and his campaign gives Americans of all parties a chance to show their disapproval of this disastrous policy.

Your writer does not do himself or your magazine honour by writing in such a dismissive manner of the only candidate who gives America a chance to escape the disasters of the Bush doctrine of pre-emptive war.
Gene Berkman

It’s quite correct that Howard Dean is likely to be yesterday’s man by, at the very latest, US election day 2004, and the main reason for it is to be found in the recent flood of US news reports that supporters of George W Bush are already trying to raise more than $US150 million to help the president campaign against other members of his party to gain nomination as its 2004 candidate.
