Dean is crazy, McEntee good. I rather wonder if the other way might work better.

Guess Kerry and Edwards get top billing, though, with Dean under them.

Geez, why he is still after Dean? Very interesting.

5. You are right...
OOPS, I mean Correct...
I think that a new organization is going to come about as a result of those of us who aligned ourselves with Howard Dean...stay tuned...
By the way, I like your "super Dean" thingy...

3. Looks like Drudge wants Edwards?
What is that "Man-to-man" debate bullshit?

4. I guess McEntee is trying to make himself look good?

I went to the link you provided to the Drudge Report, and all I can conclude is that this union guy is trying to backtrack from his support of Howard Dean. Too sad.
Having worked on Howard Dean's campaign (as a volunteer) and seeing how the media, other Dem candidates (in a panic-state, I would guess) and the Repubs have taken snippets of his speeches and magnified them beyond recognition, I would say that this guy is trying to distance himself and his union from what he may perceive as negative association. It's too bad that all this came about. I really think that Howard Dean provided more passion and caring to this whole debate. Of course it got twisted to insanity-like proportions. Can we say SPIN?!?
I am glad that the other unions stuck with him, though. I was fortunate enough to meet their representatives at a steering committee meeting in New Haven, Ct a few months ago.
Thanks for providing this link, have been pretty out of touch with everything lately due to working too much overtime (in a non-union workplace...)
XXXOOO

6. more bullshit from the leaders of the stop
the democrats from kicking their sorry asses. i think dean would be very helpful in trying to get the senate back. we certainly need him in il. i think the democrats think they can take the senate seat but don`t count on that at all. the republicans are going to run their campaigns on a typical republican platform-waste and corruption in washington and what a godly man bush is, which is ironic but it "sells soap". as for the union guy- shut the fuck up.

8. My opinion
They are whores in the first place. Never really entertaining the idea of real change, just jumping on the front runner wagon because they were planning ahead of who they would need to whore themselves to to benefit them most in the future. Backing Kerry is a good fit for them. He's certainly more likely to keep the door to "money for favors" open to them. We've all heard that spill "we're comming, your going, and don't let the door hit you on the way out". Well what it fails to include is that door is a revolving one!

9. Dean is still a threat
even 'out of the race' Dean will be driving the debate, mainly because of his supporters.

10. Drudge is simply quoting the New York Times
Very few of their atricle not written by Jayson Blair have turned out to be false.
