I didn't think he had it in him, but....

Howard is funny!

That was hilarious. Reminds me of Bill Clinton playing sax (I said SAX)!) on Arsenio. I think this will play well. Maybe it's not "presidential" to the stuff-meisters, but it was very human.

22. The after care has been fabulous
When I first saw the speech, I was taken aback, but the more I hear of it, it is really making me laugh now. This top ten list was very funny, and his delivery was excellent. The Austrian accent had me on the floor laughing. I think his handling of another so called "gaffe" has been just what the doctor ordered. :)

32. Here ya go.They got them up pretty quick.
Edited on Fri Jan-23-04 12:09 AM by MrsGrumpy
10. Switch to decaf.
9. Unveil new slogan, "Vote for Dean and get one dollar off your next purchase at Blimpie."

8. Marry Rachel on the final episode of "Friends."

7. Don't change a thing, it's going great.

6. Show a little more skin.

5. Go on "American Idol" and give them a taste of those pipes.

4. Start working out and speaking with an Austrian accent.

3. I can't give specifics yet, but it involves Ted Danson.

2. Fire the staffer who suggested I do this lousy Top 10 List instead of actually campaigning.

1. Oh, I don't know -- maybe fewer, crazy, red-faced rants.

42. In the words of Bugs Bunny..."What a maroon"...you didn't WATCH any
TV tonight did you?

I don't know how anybody could say that Dean's campaign did incredible damage control tonight...just by being real. Between the town hall meeting, the debate, the Sawyer interview and the "top 10" list on Letterman, Dean's reminded people who he really is...a person who does what he believes is right, regardless of how "popular" it might be.

In describing the "I Have a Scream" speech to Sawer, he said (I'm paraphrasing) "There were 3500 kids who worked their butts off for me in Iowa and I thought they deserved the enthusiasm. I'm a little sheepish about it now, but not apologetic."

Great, honest statement.

43. Not at all...this kind of stuff resonates with people
The only ones bothered by the small things are the hardcore politicos. Average Joe LOVES this kind of stuff. I have NH network stations with my cable and Dean has a couple of really awesome ads running in NH right now. They are the best of all the candidates.

36. For those that missed it:
Edited on Fri Jan-23-04 12:12 AM by Jen6
(Gawd, I hate it when people post about television! Not everyone gets to see these things, you know! So let's fill the people in)

What I can remember (was interupted by a phone call)

What I, Howard Dean, can do top turn things around:

#10 Switch to decaf

#? Show some skin (pulls back jacket)

#? I can't tell you, but it involves Ted Danson

#2 Start working out and use an Austrian accent.

#1 Oh, I don't know...less red faced rants?"

ON EDIT: See post #32!

I think that we can turn this around. I may not have believed it 2 days ago but Dean really does seem to have 9 lives.

47. He was great.
He made the list so much funnier particularly the flashing the skin and imitating Arnold. Actually, the way he read the #1 answer was pretty funny too. He really had a great media day.

57. He did ok, BUT
It would have been better if he had taken the trip to NY (it's not that far), and been in the theatre with Dave.. The NY audience was not exactly "boisterous" with applause.. He should have done a walk on for the top 10, and then sat with Dave for a real interview..

That would have done him more good..

It was ok, though.. better than nothing..
