to fight to keep Democrats in office this Novemberhttp://www.annarbor.com/news/howard-dean-rallies-university-of-michigan-students-to-fight-to-keep-democrats-in-office-this-novemb/Former Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean told a crowd of mostly University of Michigan students Wednesday night that a victory for Democrats in the November midterm elections is anything but assured.
"You caused a revolution in this country two years ago. We are in danger of losing everything that you worked for," he said. "We can't let that happen. All I'm asking is, for the next 55 days, that you get your friends involved like you did two years ago."
With less than two months to go until the Nov. 2 election, Dean urged the crowd gathered at Rackham Auditorium in Ann Arbor to sign up to volunteer for the campaigns of Democratic Congressmen John Dingell, Mark Schauer and Gary Peters.
"This is not joking around time anymore," Dean said. "People don't think the Congressional elections matter. But if you want to get something done like fixing the student loans thing or getting your health insurance taken care of when you graduate here, these guys have got to come back."
Howard Dean takes the stage Wednesday night at Rackham Auditorium on the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
