2. Way to go California!

I am not trying to get too hopeful but I am still hoping!

[Old and In the Way]

3. Dean is the clear favorite for DNC chair.

Every poll I've seen shows his popular support. I hope they make it unanimous.....that would send a strong signal to base that they are listening to us.

[SCDem]

4. But many DNC members are not voicing support one way or the other

and those are the ones I worry about

I feel like I've done all I can by writing or talking to all my state's DNC members

[janx]

5. They will--

because they'll vote.

[Miami Liberal]

6. Go Dean! Yeaaaarrgghh

[Debi]

7. Fitzgerald is from Iowa!! Yeah!!

Now, can anyone keep the Clintons busy for the next couple of weeks? :shrug:

What is their problem? That the 'little people' may have a voice? :wow:

8. Scott Maddox, FL, and his dog, Lockjaw, too.

9. This is great news.

Scuttlebut here is that at least 3 DNC electors are privately pledged to Dean.

10. Good Good Good!

Ramble on, Howard!

[saltpoint]

11. A lot of good would come out of a Dean chairmanship.

I'm not strongly against the others, but strongly FOR Dean.

We need a good hit of good energy. This is the doctor I want in charge of the party.

12. If the DNC wants any of my money, they'd better have Howard Dean

..at the helm....

I haven't sent them a dime in months...and until liberals get control they won't see anymore...

If I wanted to fund republicans I'd give my money to the GOP....

[no name no slogan]

13. Dean had it sewn up a while ago

One of my highest-ranking party officials (no names, to protect the innocent) said that Dean has about 70% of the vote of DNC delegates.

This thing is his for the taking.
