wndycty finally admits. . .DEAN WAS ROBBED!
. . .but I am not talking about the primary, from today's NY DAILY NEWS.

Howard Dean was robbed!

If Howard Dean ever had any reason to scream his head off, this was it.
-snip-

But thunderheads had gathered along the route to D.C. and Dean's flight couldn't take off. So a speaker-phone was set up at the fund-raiser, and Dean went to a pay phone, retrieved a calling card from his wallet, and dialed into the event while resting his wallet on top of the phone.

As he was delivering an impassioned pep talk about impending Democratic victory, Dean saw some disembodied fingers suddenly slip around his wallet - containing all his credit cards and an undetermined amount of cash - and just as suddenly disappear with them.

"I gotta go. Somebody just stole my wallet," Dean abruptly ended his speech.

But instead of saying "YEEEEAAAARRRRGH!" Dean calmly filed a police report and - using his passport in his briefcase as identification - eventually made his way back to Burlington.
-snip-

5. See how cool, calm and collected Dean is?
"I have to go somebody just stole my wallet."

Just the kind of man we need in the White House.
