Dean's Speech today in SC is the most significant speech since JFK & RFK

[Dems Will Win]

Can someone please name for me a speech by Clinton or anyone else that can compare with what Dean did today in that speech? I'm voting it the most significant speech by any Democrat since RFK and JFK. This completely turns the tables on the Republicans.

It's now the Democrats that have a "Southern Strategy". And given the way manufacturing jobs have been wiped out in the South, Dean could now win NC, FL, AR, TN and maybe, maybe Georgia! (Never thought I'd say this) Don't forget Dean WILL raise $200 million and Soros will raise $75 million and Moveon more than $15 million and the UNions--who knows. The TV ads will be toe-to-toe but Bush can now only campaign in the South with his pants pulled down, because Dean just exposed him!

This is wild!

DEMS REALLY WILL WIN!

Here's the speech thread. Let me know what you think. Is it or is it not the best since RFK and JFK?

Because if this speech is what I think it is, we should all have at least one night here to

PAAAAAAARTEEEEEEEEY!

1. Folks should spread this speech far and wide, IMHO.

2. Dupe. This is posted and discussed several times in GD.

And the hyperbolic, hyperventilating reaction is amusing.

3. An impressive effort. Truly.

Don't know if it exceeds some of the past, but it's very good.

His strategy is right. Don't let the Repubs define the terms and subject of the debate. Make -them- answer accusations.

4. What is significant is that it has the real potential to end the whole

Pink Tutu Wimpocratic Era of the last 21 years (excepting Clinton)! If he can keep it up and pull this off in the campaign we are really going places. Dean's only 7 points behind Bush right now in Florida, and all the new registers won't be in any polls until the primary happens in that state, meaning he's a few points closer in reality than that.

That is amazing given that half of all Floridians don't know anything about Dean and we are a year before the election. This speech is going to put him over the hurdle I think, in appealing to the middle and many others.
