"The infamous Dean scream...may have been the most eloquent moment created by a Democrat all year. "

This Time, Howard Dean May Really Be the Answer

by

It was my favorite
quote from the 2004 presidential campaign, and the man who screamed it is back.


Bring it on, Howard Dean. The former Vermont governor now wants to run the Democratic Party.


The infamous Dean scream, broadcast nationwide Jan. 19 as he conceded defeat in the
Iowa caucuses, may have been the most eloquent moment created by a Democrat all year.

Dean is the perfect choice to salvage something Democrats can use from the 2004 campaign. Before the party establishment crushed him in Iowa, the fast-talking dynamo electrified cadres of newly active Democrats across the country.

Once again, party gatekeepers in Washington are fully engaged in a stop-Dean movement...Have the anti-Dean Democrats considered that the best way to really stop Dean is to let him be chairman? He is flatly vowing not to run for president in 2008 if he gets the job.
