Yes, you read right...someone, somewhere actually believes that Dean has a chance. Actually, quite a few people in So FL believe that Dean has a chance. There were 23 people at our meetup, 4 first-timer's (including myself). Ages ranged from early 20's to late 80's...all determined to do what it takes to get Dean elected.
All told, there were 7 meetups tonight in Palm Beach County (yep, land of the hanging chad!!). 2 Meetups were added last minute to accomodate the recent upswing in Dean interest in Palm Beach County.
Media was there as well...an editor and photographer from the local Palm Beach Co paper...several of us were interviewed re: our thoughts on the election and Dean in particular.
This Saturday, 7 Feb is a CRUCIAL day...it is "I Am Howard Dean's Special Interest" Day. At 4 pm EST all across the nation Dean Supporters will be standing on street corners holding signs attesting to that fact.
Something simple and easy that ANYONE can do. Feel like you need to do something for Howard? Do this!
My final comment is that this race is FAR from over. General consensus tonight was "How dare they disregard FL..CA..NY.. and all the rest of the states that have yet to vote".
So say what you will, I am hanging in there for Howard. Are you????
