Filling the Void

Take at look at the DNC web site (democrats.org).  There is a single page with the John Kerry farewell letter.  No links, no positions, no rally the troops, nada.

The metaphor is clear, the DNC is no longer there for us.  No one is out there to dispel the "mandate myth".  No one is speaking out about the voting problems.

We need to fill this void and fast.  We have a clear issue to rally around - fair elections.  No matter how you feel about the Nov. 2 results, it is clear that there are problems with these black box machines, and youth voters and minorities were clearly victimized through challenges, registration fraud, long voting lines, and so on....

I know that there are varied opinions about Howard Dean as a candidate, but no questions exist when it comes to his ability to rally the troops.  Gov. Dean already has an organization, visibility and he has attempted to address the voting issue in the past.

I think we should all contact Dean now and ask him to step up and fill the leadership void.  This would not be the start of Dean 08, but it would give our side a cause and the ability to organize in these dark times.
