And this pic with the caption.
A Regular Working Class Person, Mr. Brooks


I do believe Dr. Dean will be crushed by regular working class people. That is a special picture.

Great thread.

1. "Only the people...liked Dr. Dean."
At first, almost nobody in the Democratic establishment wanted Dr. Dean as chairman - not senators, congressmen or governors, most of whom looked askance at his insurgent presidential candidacy last year and tried to field their own candidates for party chairman this winter. Only the people - more precisely, a critical mass of the 447 members of the national committee - liked Dr. Dean. They are generally liberal state and local grassroots activists eager for a party leadership that will take on President Bush and the Republican-controlled Congress.

Yeah, baby.

2.  "the head of the party"
"People said to me it's kind of remarkable the way he's transformed himself from the guy that people remembered for the Iowa speech to the guy that people are looking to as leader of the party," Mr. McMahon said. "Really, the only thing that happened is that he was able to sit down in various forums and be the Howard Dean that everybody was attracted to two years ago: the plain-spoken, blunt Democrat who wasn't afraid to take a stand and state it bluntly."

We knew he had it in him! :D

3. Brooks must have written that article standing on his head!

Tough assignment but he was paid well to do it. Anyone see him interview Dean at the Democratic Natl Convention?

He's a closet fan of the Guv.;-)
