Poll question: Do you love Howard Dean?
I'm a man, and I will say that I love Howard Dean.

He's the greatest.

4. I fear he just pushes more people away
Carville has done a great job but I wouldn't want him in charge of the party either. Too much of a lightening rod. We have whored ourselves out because of Dean's fundraising ability. Meanwhile he pushes away the middle of the road that we need in 2008.

5. Mind elaborating on this?
"We have whored ourselves out because of Dean's fundraising ability."

Dean's fundraising ability means the DNC has been raising more money lately than they have in a long time. How is that whoring ourselves out, as you put it? People giving money to a party they believe in is whoring themselves out?

Better tell that to the repukes, too, then.

6. he needs to learn some media savvy
How to couch ideas better, and how to use proxies for the harsh attacks rather than making them himself.

10. I love Howard Dean
He may not be the best politician by today's weak standards, but he's one of the few Democrats with a backbone. At this point, that's enough to make me love you, in a way that wouldn't offend Republican's.

12. Howard Dean kicks ass
How's that for an option?

What I like about him, is also at times what's frustrating about him (namely his blunt spoken style), because I know how much of a shitstorm it causes (and usually it's unjustified).

I gotta give him credit though for not flinching from the criticism.
