1. i'm guessing joe average assumes it is Clinton |
|
I know that Clinton is trying to give others their chance to lead but I think he is perceived as the leader by most.

because I don't believe Americans have anyone that they consider head of either party.
When I think of the Republican party, no one individual comes to mind.

You could've at least listed Terry McAuliffe, eh?
:shrug:
For ME Howard Dean is my political leader. I'm a Dean Democrat. He changed my politics and for the better. He can change the Democratic Party for the better if they'd but let him; they may not. He said on Friday (when I saw him in Atlanta) that people outside D.C. were receptive to his candidacy, but not those inside the beltway because they don't want to change.
Funny that I see people like Begala and others step right up to the plate even now (I saw this again just the other day!) and credit Howard Dean with "giving the Democratic Party its spine back," and yet they are terrified of the idea of having him at the helm. Ridiculous defeatists afraid of success.

5. I agree with your sentiments |
|
Dean is the head of the party as far as I am concerned. Unfortunately, I don't think the average American thinks there is a leader, as my other post says.

doesn't think there is a head of the Democratic party. This impression is fortified by the rw propaganda, which says the Democratic party is dying on the vine.

10. As far as the 'average' dem is concerned |
|
10% would KNOW TM's name. He is not involved with much outside of MAJOR donor fundraising. We don't have a VOICE that represents this party....and OMG, we need one.

A few weeks ago there was a poll and Hillary Clinton came in first with John Kerry coming in second.

12. I think traditionally it's the last Democratic nominee for president |
|
but since Kerry didn't win, probably it is Clinton since he was the last Democratic president.
