3. In a way I do, because there ought to be change.
But then I think, look at his track record of winning democratic primaries, and I wonder, what the hell, ya know? I mean, we need change, and he made the right noises, though I doubt his bona fides as a progressive, as he seems to have just put that suit on. but can he lead the democrats?

5. Well here's a question for you, then...
who do you think would be the best choice, if not Dean?

6. I wish I knew, and right now, I'd choose Dean
The worst thing to do would be more of the same. Give him a chance to prove he's for real. Its just that I am not one of those who is already convinced he's the guy to lead us out of the wilderness. But I would say lets give him the chance.

13. At our recent DNC members forum in MN
the rank-and-file party members were supporting Dean 2-to-1 over the next closest candidate. Also, in MN, our DNC reps are directly elected by the delegates at the state convention-- unlike most other states.

I wouldn't be suprised if Dean gets at least 3 of MN's 4 votes for DNC chair-- possibly all of them. At this point, he's clearly the favorite.

14. I would, but I am not sure they care what a Green thinks, and worse
I'd hate for them to make a knee-jerk decision against him due to my party affiliation.
