2. I love Howard Dean, but I doubt he will be the VP nominee.

[DebbieCDC]

3. I'm on board

I have supported Dr. Dean since his run for the presidency. Looks like a good ticket to me!

[newmajority]

4. I could only dream of a ticket as great as that.

The only question is, who takes over the DNC??

Who is worthy and able to carry on the restoration of the Democratic party, in the way that Dr. Dean has been doing?

[Muttocracy]

5. doubt it but I'd be perfectly happy with it. nt

[bigwillq]

I would love it.

But I don't think it's going to happen, but we shall see.

I really thing Dean is doing a great job in his current capacity.

[Fleshdancer]

6. in my dreams!

I love Dean. I also love anything that would piss off the DLC. :D

[newmajority]

7. Not just the DLC

Imagine this..... President Barack Obama. Vice President Howard Dean. Attorney General John Edwards.

Imagine heads exploding all over the corporate offices of the Whore Media :)

8. and then i woke up!

*sigh*
itd be nice to have a doctor in the house.

9. Dean certainly knows what he is doing. Would be a great pick

but I don't think it will happen.

[book_worm]

10. What would be great about Dean as VP is he would relish the traditional VP role of attack dog

[Upfront]

11. Count me in.

Great ticket.

[PresidentObama]

12. NO!! HELL NO!! We need Dean where he is: the DNC

Unless you would rather have Harold Ford or Terry McAuliffe take over again.

[Prophet 451]

13. Can't see it happening

It would be a great ticket but for some reason, I just don't see it happening.

[my3boyz]

14. I like Dean but it is not..gonna...happen. nt

[Radical Activist]

15. LOL Funniest thing I've read all day.

Thanks!

[bunnies]

16. Unless someone destroyed every single copy of that damned scream

its never gonna happen. Sadly.

[ronnykmarshall]

17. Take that to the bank?

Sorry but that check just bounced.

[PBS Poll-435]

18. Yeah....INDYMAC Bank

:rofl:

[Phx_Dem]

19. I wish it were possible

because I love Howard Dean. Love him. But it ain't gonna happen -- he's considered too liberal and has too much "media created" baggage from 2004.

He's a good man though and I hope Obama finds a great position for him in the administration, or keeps him in a high-level position in the DNC. I think he's done a great job, and the 50-state strategy was his idea initially.

22. Obama already asked Dean to stay on as head of the DNC, it was one of the first things Obama did

after he won the primary race.

20. It's a fun fantasy, but highly unlikely. And I'd rather keep Dean as head of the DNC. (nt)

[Political Heretic]

21. Based on what? The fact that we "like" him? He brings nothing Obama strategically needs.

I love Dean. Love him! But he does more for an Obama administration as DNC Chair than he does as VP, and he doesn't bring as many strategic assets to Obama's campaign as other choices for VP would.

We may love him and we may know his qualities, but he was pretty soundly rejected by Democrats in 2004. Believe me, I know the media screwed him. But it's still what happened. There isn't any particular part of the electoral math that Dean helps with and in lieu of that, he's also not a "celebrity" political figure with anyone except those of us who constitute his fan base.

So... this is pretty much a really bad idea and quick way to waste Deans considerable skill as chairman.
