Poll: Many Can't Name Democratic Hopefuls

By The Associated Press


There's no shortage of Democrats running for president but most voters
don't know who they are, according to a new poll.

The poll, released for the Labor Day weekend which traditionally kicks
off the campaign season, showed two-thirds of the people surveyed
couldn't name one of the nine candidates seeking the Democratic
presidential nomination.

When pollsters supplied the names, Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman,
Missouri Rep. Dick Gephardt and former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean topped
the field, although with relatively low numbers that suggest the race
remains wide open.

Lieberman with 14 percent, Gephardt with 11 percent, and Dean with 10
percent were the only three in double digits in support among
registered Democrats, said the poll.

Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry was at 5 percent after being in double
digits in national polls most of the year. Kerry will try to spark his
campaign this week with the formal announcement of his candidacy.

Al Sharpton had 5 percent, Florida Sen. Bob Graham 4 percent, North
Carolina Sen. John Edwards 2 percent, former Illinois Sen. Carol
Moseley Braun 2 percent and Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich registered zero
percent in the survey calculation.

Four in 10 registered Democratic said they were satisfied with the
current field of nine candidates, while half said they would like more
choices.

When all potential voters were asked whether President Bush will
definitely be re-elected, 38 percent said yes, but 50 percent said
they think a Democrat can win. When voters were asked the same
question about Bush's father in October 1991, 66 percent said yes, but
that number dropped 20 points in the next month. The first President
Bush lost to Bill Clinton.

The poll of 775 registered voters was taken Aug. 26-28 and has a
margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points, larger for
subgroups like Democratic voters.

The average Democrat can't even read. These
poll results are to be expected.

Right you are Vito! Bush is spending more than a liberal with a Democrat
controlled Congress.

Bush has betrayed the Republic and the Constitution!

There's no hope until another Reagan or Goldwater comes along. Until then,
vote for GRIDLOCK!

Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice!

Moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!
