Though I have been a forthright critic of Governor Dean and Joe Trippi on, in my view, the "squandering" of the momentum with idealism run rampant, naive strategic blunders and then trying to get what soft, badly and so slow-to-respond war-roomed messages through the conduit of amateur media (words, photos, videos, commercials, etc.), I greatly admire Joe Trippi (and Governor Dean) for a lot.

It's probably because I am frustrated that not even the cause seems to be surviving, let alone his once, very promising reform candidacy for a new, cleaned up Whitehouse.

I point all here to his statement on what money he made as Campaign manager (that is if all the bills get paid from the Dean camp - reports are that $400k is owing to Trippi's firm).

Please see Feb. 11/04 at:

It's a strong statement and even includes a much-waited-for "the buck stops here" frankness.

Test only - please ignore

Make a deal with Clark, before the polls close. For once, be ahead of the game, not behind it.

It's do-able. Unprecedented, yes, but what isn't such in these dangerous times we live in that need a real solution and massive, not rhetorical reform.

Dean and Clark must enter the convention, or even Kerry will never win the general. It'll never happen. And remember also that Nader is waiting in the wings to fill the gap and hence, kill it all. By then, it will be too late to turn back the clock.

I simply can't take it anymore

No amount of pleading and begging, from money-giving, hard working, dedicated Dean supporters (desperate for a small miracle) has budged the campaign HQ one inch on this:

I feel terrible having to do this, but there is no more time and this is just the tip of the iceberg.

No kick-start strategy or any Dean message will ever get through as long as the Dean media department (photos, video, commercials, speech writing, newsletters, and so forth) remains in "tiny talent time."

Damn.

New user can't figure out how to publish a poll.

My apologies while I see if I can get these erroneous diary entries deleted and get a real poll up.

;-(

Man, this is embarrassing.

Who is the Anti-Kerry?
