2. Even Jon Stewart laughed at Dean and his door hanger idea
My house had about 100 people come through the last four days-knocking on doors and distributing door hangers--I'd guess about 4,000 or so in 5 precincts

Yes the DLC, as you know, had determined that they could fight it out with the Repubs chiefly in fundraising. The end of this strategy was to eek out victories by appealing to soccer moms and in only eeking out wins they could continue to get funds from the big money interests that used to be dominated by the right AND because of this source of their livelihood nothing would change. The status quo would never been threatened and there would be no conclusion no resolution. Professional Wrestling.

When Dean won the DNC chair over Harold Dean that was the beginning of the end. Obama taking down Hillary and then winning a national election (let alone on the scale that he did) does not mean that they will go away. Clearly the DC media liked the idea of an everlasting drama so that is why they tried desperately to put Obama away (regardless of what they say about their own coverage) but if "God DAMN America" can't put a brother down NOTHING will. Dean started the 50 state strategy and Obama & Axelrod applied Chicago street-level block-by-block politics to it.
