Is it surprising at all that Democratic beltway insiders' political instincts are/were way off when it comes to belittling Howard Dean for some incendiary remarks? Is it any wonder that these same bozos who haven't won a damn thing in a decade (Clinton doesn't count because he did it all himself, he could have won with a cadre of marmosets for a staff. Wait...) didn't want to associate themselves with anything even resembling a fight? They're a bunch of cowering losers! What else could we have possibly expected of them? When Republicans say stupid shit and get called on it, every single member of the GOP caucus, marching orders in hand, goes to the press and at the very least highlights the basic truth in what their guy was "getting at." They certainly don't make him look bad/stupid/rash/uninfluential in front of the media.
The takeaway from this story is that we on the net are ON OUR OWN. The party brass in Washington simply doesn't have the balls/brains to take us where we need to be. Many thanks to good Dr. Dean for making that all too clear. Newsflash to all Democratic loss-meisters: If you yourself think the GOP is full of bullshit and someone else (maybe the party chair?) goes on TV and says that they're full of horseshit, when it's your turn to be on TV you nod and agree and say that "yes, they're full of shit." You don't argue whether it was a bull or a horse.

This blog is based on a true story.
and dean chooses "they don't like people of different groups" or some such shit...
No, that's merely one thing he says. The Dems have consistently and foolishly believed that if they give the GOP a pass on certain issues and just focus on a coupla things that they think will sink the bastards (e.g., Enron, Iraq), then they'll win. Dean knows you show the enemy no quarter and put them on the defensive. They already win on policy--now they need to get inside the Republicans' OODA loop. Dean's doing that.
I do hear what you're saying, Noose. If it'd been me up there, I'd probably wouldn't have said the bit about "never making an honest living," but at this point, he's our King in the hole. Wish he was an Ace, but a King's still good enough to go all-in.
plenty of dem freinds of mine have said basicly the same
For the record, I am not a member of any party, but was a Deaniac. This Indy likes him because a) I'm from Vermont, and more importantly, b) HoHo has a spine. I'm sick of GOP Lite as much as I am of the GOP itself.

At Poker Night a coupla months ago I lost big time on a hand (wildcards, sorry) with 5 Kings. My fucking friend Matt had 5 Aces. I hate that.
