I think DFA should take over the reform party
As many times as Dean used the word reform in his speech today, he certainly would qualify. For those who do not remember, during the campaign of election 2000, the Buchananites fought the Natural Law Party over the Reform Party. Natural Law Party is about as liberal as greens.

By the time 2008 rolls around there will be lots more to reform, and I still believe Howard Dean is the man to do it!

1. I think DFA should take over the DEMOCRATIC Party
Since its current occupants have made a mess of it.

2. Until the DNC realizes the DLC path is a loser
I am unsure whether Dean could take over. We'll find out shortly, I suppose...

3. The DLC is on the ropes
Believe me on this. They are scrambling like cockroaches in the light. I got this in the mail, scrawled on a cocktail napkin in sharpie, from one of the secretaries:

"Al From has developed a nervous tic. Don't make sudden noises around him unless the oxygen is close at hand. And Bruce Reed has to bring an extra shirt every day to the office because he keeps sweating through the first one. His hands shake uncontrollably , so much so he can't light his cigarette unless he uses two hands to hold the match.

They have taped aluminum foil up on the windows to keep the rays from reaching them, and they have stacks of newspapers and magazines that reach to the ceiling.

Any day now you'll spot Will Marshall with a three day growth of beard, a half empty coffee cup in hand , wearing fuzzy slippers , sweat pants and a robe, cradling a box of tissues in his arms while he shambles down the lumpy cracked DC sidewalk talking to himself, bursting into tears every ten minutes or so.

Merry Fucking Christamas"

4. Their strategy didn't fare so well in 2004, eh?

And the big corporations no longer have much use for them, not with the GOP's lock on the federal government.

Plus the Democrats have found a novel(for them) funding source, the American people!

What will these quislings do with themselves now?
