I don't buy that Dean was too liberal to win. He provided a more clear contrast on the war issue then Bush did and domestically I think it's up for debate weather or not he was more liberal then Kerry. The problem from my understanding is that baby boomer Democratic strategists were still scarred from the experience of McGovern and thought somehow that Dean would be a repeat of that.
