What the rank and file Democrats think of Dr. Dean

You may have heard or read that Democrat politicians were unhappy with their party chairman, Howard Dean. That may be true for the politicians that actually have to run for re-election but the rank and file of the party love him.

About 2,000 wildly applauding Florida Democrats turned out for a pep rally at Walt Disney World, on the eve of their state conference, to hear Dean and other national party leaders blast President Bush and Republican policies in Congress.

2,ooo wildly applauding Florida Democrats. They love Howard Dean! They loved his message in the 2004 election but the party elite squashed it. In spite of everything, including the Clintons, Dean has become Chairman of the Party.

Democrat politcians may claim that Dean doesn't speak for them. Maybe not, but he speaks for the ones who elect them.

The mid-term elections are going to be very interesting. Will the rank and file of the Democratic party allow their politicians to campaign from moderate positions or will they demand red meat?

... hmmm, my old friend the "Democrap". We have the "Orlando Slantinel" down here.

I agree, Whit, the rank and file Democrats love Dean. A line of division has been drawn in this country between those who hate the country, and those who don't.

Guess which side ALL Demonrats are on?!? And no, I'm not being outrageous. This is why I'm on Bush's back so much. He's unaware of all of this.
