Dean in Miami tonight...says merger with Obama campaign going smoothly...completed in a few days.
Looks like the fairly low dollar fundraiser went smoothly, and it doesn't look like any tomatoes were thrown...despite the urging from the Miami Herald blog.

I found this from a Miami blogger, thought some of the comments were interesting.

Howard Dean in Miami

Media coverage of Dean in Florida is spotty, rude, or non-existent.

For those who saw the TV report and wondered what happened, here’s the skinny:

Campaigns merging. No more separate DNC and Obama campaign. “The Obama campaign is a delight to work with,” DNC Chairman Howard Dean said, and the merger will be complete in a few days.

No Money from PACS. “This is a real change” for the DNC. Your donations are ever more essential.

Voter File. “The more we use it the better it gets.” Get out there and knock on doors and call voters and find out what moves them. Everyone should sign up for the campaign’s neighborhood volunteer program and contact at least 25 neighbors. Then do it three or four more times. The internet is great, but “personal connections trump everything.”

Dean on our Congressional candidates. The three of them -- Joe Garcia, Raul Martinez and Annette Taddeo -- will win on a big Obama victory. And by the way, watch this space for news of who’s getting endorsed by organized labor and who’s getting Red to Blue. This will be hot news, and good news.

The new president (Obama) will have two main jobs. (1) “Heal America” and end “divisive politics.” (2) And restore America’s moral authority so that we can help warring nations find solutions to their conflicts.


Three good candidates in that area of Florida...good for Dean for mentioning them. We need to get Debbie Wasserman Schultz publicly and openly working for them and working against the GOP opponents. So far she has refused to do that, citing their friendships.
