46. Whoa....denial?
"I say Dean's grassroots is a non-issue now because it hasn't propelled him."

Hasn't propelled him? You mean it hasn't propelled him from a 1% cute story about a Governor from a tiny state to frontrunner in the Democratic race?

Hasn't propelled him to a double-digit lead in NH and a serious challenger in IA, which was supposed to be a slam-dunk for Gep?

Hasn't propelled him to a record-breaking quarter for fundraising, where hundreds of thousands of people gave small donations totalling almost $15 Million?

Hasn't propelled him to the kind of popularity that causes the most powerful union in the AFL-CIO to declare that they will endorse "Dean or no one?"

A few months ago, it was funny to watch the Dean-haters suggest that Dean wasn't going anywhere. At this point, it's just weird to see that same kind of denial.

I sincerely hope that if Dean gets the nom, you won't let your embarassment at being wrong keep you from helping out.
