Dean is flipping out on CNN!!

[ALago1]

Really energetic, really loud!!! Watch!

[economic justice]

1. Embarrassing

Drinking tonight, Howard? Sad.

[_Jumper_]

15. How many votes did he just lose?

n/t

[economic justice]

21. I think you said it right

Gave the Bush campaign great footage if he is the eventual nominee.

[_Jumper_]

2. What is he thinking?

This is perfect footage for the RNC!

[SangamonTaylor]

12. wow, very excited

made me think of that scene from the movie Black Sheep...

"It's one small step for man.....I have a dream!

Kill Whitey!"

[Cuban_Liberal]

3. Wow!

That is NOT a defeated candidate! :P

[Blitz]

27. Um, I don't know about defeated

but that didn't look like a sane candidate. He just turned his campaign into an SNL skit.

[mandyky]

4. It's on CSpan too

via an Iowa TV station simulcast

[ALago1]

5. I thought it was pretty embarassing too...

...but his supporters are having a collective orgasm :)

[KC21304]

6. You took the words right out of my fingers. LOL

[BeyondGeography]

7. He's bordering on incoherent

Growling out all these names of states. Reinforcing the anger image with this crazed look in his eyes. This campaign has been much better for Dean's presence, but, I'm sorry, this is really bad.

[EllieDem]

13. This is why Dean is losing support

I can't believe how unstable he looks right now. Those faces he's making will be used in campaign ads against him. He looks scary

[TacticalPeek]

8. There is a bit of the Churchill bulldog in Dean.

:)

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

43. It's what a fighter looks like.

Something we need in this party.

[youngred]

9. kinda scary

and rather insulting to list off mass, conn, missouri, ohio, nc, ny...the states his opponants are from.

he sounded like he was on the WWF

17. I wish I could find the point of your message...

...looks like I'm gonna have to form a search party.

[hellhathnofury]

22. The others stabbed and stabbed and stabbed for three months...

and then stole the basis of Howards message and went positive.

[youngred]

31. yuh huh

:eyes:

[hellhathnofury]

36. Hell. It's pretty clear.

There's actually been people from other camps throwing empowerment around here. Read Ronald Brownsteins LAT column from today.

[chookie]

41. That sounds about right

You've expressed it succinctly.

Dean was the guy who kicked the door down, got people interested in the election, made it "cool" to openly criticize the smirkistas in public. Dean was the guy who was most gentlemanly about his fellow candidates -- and that was after being in the middle of their feeding frenzy for months. But when their negative ads started dragging him down and he counter-attacked -- suddenly, the others "run a positive campaign." Yeah, right. Howard Dean was railroaded, by the usual suspects. I am NOT comfortable about that.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

11. Yeah

I liked how he did the spirit fingers, tres chic.

[grytpype]

14. This is good because it shakes things up.

If Dean had been annointed the nominee without much of a contest, and then he (GOD FORBID) lost to Bush in the GE, we would always be wondering whether we didn't make a mistake putting all our eggs in one basket...

AND, Iowa and NH might overshadow the SOTU, with Bush talking about moon bases and marriage counsellors.

[aldian159]

16. My one question

why does he always roll his sleeves up?

[Catherine Vincent]

26. Subliminable (sic) message.

It means, he's a hard working guy.

[DuctapeFatwa]

18. Is he standing on top of an SUV?

:evilgrin:

[bicentennial_baby]

25. I think I saw Oscar in the crowd!

Look out!

[DuctapeFatwa]

37. I understand Oscar has offered oratory coaching to all the candidates

Although his office has been very clear that he has not endorsed any candidate, nor does he plan to, he has graciously offered to help all with their presentations, and there are unconfirmed reports that he has made each a present of a red plaid vest, for visibility purposes in the fog.

[Lefty48197]

19. I loved it!

Sure he seemed just a little bit nutty, but he was overflowing with passion. I liked it.

[Mz Pip]

20. Manic

Sorry, but this is scary.

mzpip
:dem:

[nancyharris]

23. That was embarrassing

How sad.

[shoopnyc123]

24. HE'S BAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK! (nm)

[EllieDem]

32. Dean said sometimes when he gets angry

that he needs to be restrained......I think I can clearly see that now

[youngred]

38. a man needing to be restrained isn't the type

I want with a finger on the bomb

[cmf]

28. Fodder for the RNC

My husband actually mused, "I wonder if he is drunk?" It's quite interesting to watch, but I can't help but get a bad feeling about it.

[Catherine Vincent]

34. Yup. The RNC are probably doing back flips about now.

Especially since they broke from Edwards to Dean. A lot of people got a chance to see that spectacle.

[mitchum]

29. Why isn't he wearing wrestling trunks and a mullet?

[Meshuga]

30. It's like the WWF...

He's speaking spanish too. Pretty soon we are going to see him asking for "TP" for his bunghole... :-)

[ALago1]

33. LOL!!!!

Oh man that made me fall on the floor.

Dean as Cornholio! LOL

[youngred]

39. thats exactly what I said

not good

[LTR]

35. Started out strong

wound up babbling and yelling incoherently while yelling state names.

[Zech Marquis]

40. Karl Rove is making the video clips now

I know Dean meant to pump some positive energy to his supporters in Iowa, but that, that.."performance"...you can bet Kerry and Clark will use it too.

[knight_of_the_star]

42. OMGS

That is just scary! I think he just managed to wreck his own campaign tonight. And New Hampshire is only in a few days too, people won't have forgotten this by then.
