Karl Rove's real nightmare
And why he doesn't want anything to do with Howard Dean.

In my precinct, turnout was 4X that of the previous caucus.

Yes, I know that my group didn't even make viability, but who do you think was the person that got in their face and got them to take a serious look at what's going on in this country? Sure, they might have picked another guy (but I can go into the many lies of John Kerry some other time.), but they got engaged.

Howard Dean makes Karl Rove break out in night sweats. Not because he can win (he can) but because an army of Democrats are pouring in through the door that he kicked open.

I'm for Howard Dean to the end, be it bitter or glorious. I'll hold my nose to vote for Kerry or Clark because they at least will stop the carnage, if not reverse it like I believe Dean can and will. The nom is still his to lose, but even if he does, he did an incredible thing that no one else in the race would have ever dreamed of doing. He's making the real Dems, the voters, wake up and face what's been happening for the last three years.

1. I guess you didn't read Rove's comments in the July 4, 2003 Washington
Post where Rove expressed his support for Dean getting the Democratic nomination. Last night the voters of Iowa said "NO" to Karl Rove.

2. And Rove is just that stupid to telegraph his desires like that

3. Playing Poker Against Karl Rove
Don't play poker against Karl Rover, he always shows his cards! You'll feel guilty about taking his money.

5. Keep going Dean

I think Dean should keep going on his present course. He is provoking people to thought and action.

If he does nothing more than put ANOTHER democrat into the White House, he will have done this country a great service. Howard Dean will be a hero either way.
