1. Dean by a mile. Not close. |
|
Terry's job was to help the Clintons continue a degree of control of the party organization. He worked for them, not the party, just like now.

Why in heavens name would we hand the Republicans half of the game, without even trying? Lame! Thank you Howard Dean!

6. Well, some Dems think those state party infrastructures were collapsed in the 90s and |
|
weakened further before 2004 as a deliberate strategy to protect the 2008 election cycle for a powerful Democrat.

4. Dean represents the party -- McAuliffe represented the Clintons. |

7. It only required open eyes and mind. |
|
Something I only recently acquired, sadly, but, as they say, knowing is half the battle! I am reasonably confident Dean will hold tight in the face of the sure to come Clinton assault on the process.

9. It's gonna be a battle. |

It's going to require heightened sense of unity from all who want a chance at honest and accountable government.
