Despite the attempts of the DLC and the mainstream cabal to trash him it is pretty clear where the hearts minds and money of the "people" really are. Howard Dean has the balls to say in public what most of the party faithful are saying to each other and behind closed doors. How dare he speak the truth - it is so crass and politically incorrect! Dean is stepping on alot of toes and probably getting dangerously close to usurping the power brokers inside the beltway who have controlled the party for so many years. Dean wants to rebuild the party from the bottom up at the state level and truly return the party to the people. So what is going to be the outcome? I think in the end Dean will prevail - because ultimately money talks and bull shit walks. And Dean knows where the money is and has proven he knows how to get it. The only thing all of this media hype and party leader distancing has done is confirm to me how really corrupt and broken the two party system has become. I'm convinced that Dean will help to fix it, or a third major party will evolve.

3. I agree but you need to explain it to people. And you will have |

red states were cows or sheep outnumber people argue that it will dilute the power. California, New York, and other large states should not be limited to two senators. I don't understand why the Democrats would resist it.

6. Should also use "Dominionists" rather than "Christian." |
|
No one should ever mistake warmongers and greedy rich men for Christians. Otherwise, go get'em Dean.

"The Party of Lincoln has now become the Party of Theocracy." Only difference is that he didn't specify WHICH Theocracy, but of course, everybody knows who he was talking about.
Why no outrage over that statement?

11. How many time did I watch Terry McAuliffe/DNC on CSPAN? |
|
ZERO. Howard Dean/DNC is a different story. I will tune in because I want to know what he's going to say next. At the same time, I have the benefit of hearing the issues and actions. I'm not the only one. The media's paying attention too.
ALL GOOD.
