That's why his numbers are dropping in Iowa and elsewhere. The truth's starting to bleed out about his behind closed door deals with Yankee Nuclear power, and Big Blue, also that his health care plan is and was a joke, that if anything he shrank Vermont's economy.. but don't take my word for it, google for it. Search for any issue in the web section, include Vermont and "Howard Dean", say you want the truth about the health care plan, do Vermont "Howard Dean" medicaid and underfunded, or how about this string Vermont, "Howard Dean" nuclear waste Sierra Blanca. It'll pull up old news stories covering Dean's less than humanitarian attitudes on environmental racism. Did you know that the tax rates for the poor and middle class went up under Dean, while the more affluent in Vermont's tax rates went down? UNder Dean, the poor and middle class paid 9.5% more and got even less. Do vote, but not for Dean, he's the same as Bush... even if he wins the primary, people all over the country have already committed to not voting for him, but to instead write in another candidates name.
