Dear Readers,
Please do your part to contact Democratic leadership (the DCCC, the DNC, Congressional folks, talking heads in the press, JAMES CARVILLE) and tell them to call off the dogs after Howard Dean.
For some reason, I can only suspect envy, greed or something more dire, the Democratic leadership wants nothing to do with Howard Dean.
This is a poison in our ranks.
The statistics show that Howard Dean's leadership and activism in small towns has reinvigorated Democrats across this nation and brought more votes to more Democrats in more areas than 2004.
Nothing could do more to quell this sea change than Democrats bickering over who should lead us.
Frankly, Howard Dean did a great job of staying humble. It was the DCCC that jumped into the spotlight even before the votes were all cast. Good for us! Just don't kick our dogsbody.
I can't believe that James Carville is going around calling Dean "Rumfeldian" and other such unmerited, unchallenged nonsense.
The New Republic has taken the position that Netroots won us this election, as has Nancy Pelosi by backing Murtha's leadership position, and in my mind I think we need more friends not less--we all did this together. From my perspective, the DCCC was the money, the DNC was the people.
So what the HELL are James Carville and his elders trying to accomplish by dividing us? Is this a class issue? The elite vs. the working class? It's looking that way to this elitist populist.
