Gunga Dean

So Howard Dean became DNC chair with little real opposition. Better him than that Republican-in-disguise Simon Rosenberg, or that creepy weirdo Bernie Fowler.

The right-wing press and bloggers have been glooating publicly and quaking privately. They know perfectly well that Dean can inspire the Democrats to action with his fiery spirit and help their grasroots effort with his organizational skills.

Don't believe the GOP when they say 'By choosing Dean, the Democrats have doomed themselves!!!" Remember when it looked like Dean would be the nominee, and all the Republicans said we'd lose if he was nominated? Well, guess what.

A Wiser Man Than I said...

As a conservative first, and a Republican second, I would say that Dean is good for the Democrats. It'is good to get some fresh blood into a party that is in much need of a boost.

Dean is certainly passionate, a good quality in a leader. He may be categorized as "too liberal", but he stands with conviction.

I wish Dean luck, though I am neither gloating nor quaking. The Democrats have done a seemingly good job, but the man in charge is not the issue. The Democrats could use some new ideas, and Dean may just be the man to do it.
