Has the RNC ever gotten so agitated over the selection of DNC Chair?

[merbex]

Before this one?

Ever? Who?

[jackster]

1. they are shaking in their boots at the prospect of Dean at the helm

[bigwillq]

3. Ain't it great!

DEAN!!!!:yourock:

[DistressedAmerican]

2. Have the dems?

[merbex]

4. I know what you mean

mea culpa

[paineinthearse]

5. Not that I can recall

I'm sure they are not looking forward to not having a rethug-lite at the helm.

[n2mark]

8. They did not want Dean for Pres and they

don't want him for DNC chair, he will whip them.

[janx]

6. Where are you getting this?

Link?

I'm definitely not surprised (and had expected it), but I've heard nothing in particular about this.

[merbex]

11. Another thread going on right now about Chuck Todd and

Judy Woodruff talking about how the RNC is going to start leaking stuff about Dean

Also Novak, I believe wrote column recently about what a mistake for Dema to pick Dean

In my book all the more reason to choose Dean - Novak offering advise to Dems that is anti Dean

[Debi]

7. They've always feared Dean

we just finally figured it out!

[n2mark]

9. Could be wrong

but I think they see Dean as a Rove, Dean could kick Rove's butt.

10. My repuke aunt from Virginia said in Sept. 2004

That the repukes she knew (and my aunt is something in the military, like a spokesperson, not sure of her exact duties)

FEARED DEAN the most of the DEM primary candidates!

14. Not To Throw Gas On A Possible Flame War But,

They Feared Clark WAY More!

Although if we were going to get beat (as we did with the looser we nominated), we should have run Dean. At least we'd have lost with an honest anti-war platform.

[bigwillq]

15. I agreed that they feared Clark as well

I really wish Clark "took off" more with the American people. Clark has his diehards here at DU as well as Dean.

Clark is really a smart guy who knows all the ins and outs of this government.

[jackster]

18. I'm hoping Clark

still has it in him to think about '08

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. And I think he'll have more fire and catch on better if he gets in from

the get go. :hi:

[Debi]

16. Maybe

But Clark is not running for DNC Chair...so why attack him now? They're trying to kick Dean out of the running once and for all.

[jackster]

17. I've heard that from

a couple of blogs - rethugs inside the beltway have supposedly noted the exact same thing to their dem compadres

[Mountainman]

12. Dean is the reason the repukes didn't have a money advantage

There wouldn't have been a race in 2004 if it hadn't been for Dean. He got the grass roots organization moving when it was dead as a door nail and this from someone who did not like him back then.

[blm]

13. They will say and do anything now because they control the media.

No matter what Democrat comes forward, they will pile on shamelessly, because there isn't enough honest media left out there to stop them.

[Pepperbelly]

19. There is a direct relationship between how hysterically they "advise" us

and the degree of threat to their power.

[BlueInRed]

22. yup

Exactly!

[BlueInRed]

21. self delete -- attached to wrong message n/t

[tom_paine]

23. No, they fear a fighter who will say the Emperor has no Clothes

And someone like that, with even the tiniest semblence of a backbone and integrity (and Dean may have much more than a 'tiny semblance'), is to be feared by Totalitarians like the Busheviks, even killed (in an accident, of course, the Busheviks haven't used guns for political assassintaions since 1968, at least here in the Homeland).

Be careful, Mr. Dean. The last Democrat they hated and feared like you was Paul Wellstone.

The one before was Mel Carnahan.

The one before that was JFK Jr.

[Debi]

24. Okay, and I thought I saw conspiracy in the Clinton's

Establishment. Should Gov. Dean take a car or train everywhere he goes from now until Feb. 12? :)
