One way I'd support Obama over Clinton
I can pretty much bet the farm that Hillary's "Terry McAuliffe" minions will get rid of Howard Dean from the chairmanship of the DNC. If Obama came out and supported Dean to continue as Chairman (that is if Howard wanted to) I'd jump on the Obama bandwagon right now.

Dean is the best "grassroots" builder the party has ever had and the patron saint of my political activism. Underneath my Edwards button is a "Dean for America" button. Go Howard!

3. I hope he does!
I caucused for Dean in my legislative district caucus in '04, and even then I was still completely gobsmacked by the great job he's done as Chairman. Dean's a large part of the reason why everyone is so excited over this election. His 50 state strategy is exactly what the party needed, and in just a few short years we've gone from despair to unabashed hope.

4. He does. Everyone around him does, too. That's why they're forming this wagon circle
of progressives completely turned off and betrayed by the TeamClinton.

Look who surrounds Obama and you'll see who is taking sides against the Clinton machine that has undermined all of them at some point.

6. Obama's campaign is the epitome of Dean's 50 state strategy.
I truly believe they are on the same wavelength re building the Democratic Party.
