Over on Debate.com, I started up a debate where the argument I made was this: Dennis Kucinich is the only Democratic presidential candidate who can beat a Republican in 2008.

Over on Debate.com, I just completed a debate where I argued that
Dennis Kucinich is the only Democratic presidential candidate who can beat a Republican in 2008.

I still believe this to be true. And I am interested in any points that would disprove my belief because I do not want another Republican to be elected. It's not my dream to see Giuliani or Huckabee be hailed as our nation's chief.

The debate over Dennis turned out to be more about Barack Obama than Dennis in some cases but I brought it back to the premise of my argument as much as possible.

The debate is in the voting stages right now. Anyone who reads it can tell me if I won or lost by registering a vote in favor of or against the PRO.
