1. Thanks for the heads up
This will be a refreshing contrast to the blathering chimp.

2. Solid interview
mentioned that he stands by his comments that the nation is no safer now that Hussein has been captured (citedflight cancellations, dozens of dead troops.)
Mentioned health record, said that other he balanced many budgets. Said he brought many new people into the party, has the best chance against Bush because of his Massive small donors base. Said he has a firey personality, goes crazy when son scores in hockey games, and that he is not a life-long, washington politician (when asked about the scream.)
Said he WILL win Wisconsin, and that the voters in Maine (he's in Bangor) have a chance today to change the momentum. re-stated that he thinks he will win the nomination and that he is the best candidate, but also mentioned that if Kerry got the nomination, he would be actively involved in getting rid of Bush.

3. I can't believe how horrible this interview is
Every single question was extremely biased against him. He looked extremely tired, and he seemed to fumble his responses. I wish that he would call them on their bullshit more. For example, look at how they treated the issue of him withdrawing. A good interviewer would ask if he intended to withdraw. In this interview, they were proclaiming that he should withdraw. I wish that Dean forcefully said that he has more delegates than five other candidates, and that there is no one insisting that they should all drop out. Why is he the one being singled out? The media is still trying to kill his campaign.

4. And now we may have fraud in WA
I am very irritated.

I doubt there was a problem in NH, just different voting machines in different areas. I'll let that go.

New Mexico? It was 28-25 with something like 100 votes to be counted, then I woke up and it was 42-19?

Look at the thread on Washington. That is unbelieveable and there MUST be a recount.

6. I saw it...and he dished it back...Dean stood strong on his answers
and a "fair minded" person could see that Dean is a man of character who doesn't cater to Washington.

8. Unfortunately, most viewers aren't "fair minded"
Dean stood strong, but the interview was extremely biased. He got treated better by Russert on Meet The Press. This was just a hack job.

7. Yeah, But He Threw It Back at Them Quite Well
I got a smile to see the interviewers sputter in a couple of places.

10. I saw it and thought he was great. It was just what I needed to hear to
pump me back up after last nights Media Whore fest where they barely mentioned him. He does have delegates and half the Dems who voted preferred someone besides Kerry. So, he's still got a fighting chance.

My only disappointment was that he didn't definitely say he would stay in until the convention.
