Is Dean the reincarnation of William Jennings Bryan?

[ALago1]

Looks like we got a good old-fashioned populist movement on our hands. This time however, the movement has a very good chance of succeeding.

Dean has got spine and a fighting attitude which Bryan severely lacked. He is no "cowardly lion".

Perhaps Bryan is back in the form of Dean to do it right this time

Or perhaps this is a symptom of not sleeping for a few days from studying US economic history.

1. I'd go with the latter choice and,

for your candidate's good name, would prefer he be compared to Clarence Darrow! ;-)

2. Crucifixion on a cross of gold

has limited appeal......

I know what you mean about not sleeping and studying though. ;)

3. William Jennings Byrant was a FOOL - Dean isn't!

The only "Monkey Trial" Dean will be at is BushCORP's corruption proceedings.

4. Bryan was the candidate in 1896, 1900 & 1908

Scopes trial was 1923.

5. He didn't win any of them, did he?

Exactly. That's just another reason why they are different.
