  •  Dean is not what the Democrats need (none / 0)

    Dean is a true politician and I believe that there are some tangible other things that are much more important to being a good DNC chair that the popularity of a politician.

    From what I can see Dean's organization was obviously inspired but apparently not in tune to what was going on the ground in Iowa.

    We need s DNC Chair that has great organization skills and outreach to regional ideas. And some one that will bolster the state parties and also figure out a compromise so that Iowa and New Hampshire can be moved from the foristt in the nation spot. Also the primary is too front loaded that the public does not get a cnce to get into the contest before it is over.

    •  I disagree... (none / 0)

      The ground in Iowa was not terra firma -it was the shifting sands of media darlinghood. Howard Dean did not implode, he was dissected by the Party Establishment. Howard Dean is exactly what we need. Not another consultant, good Lord no! Howard has a message and as DNC Chair that message will be full out, 24-7 from a man who can articulate what it means to be a Democrat.

      Livin' the Murkin Dream!
