Dean supporters! Check in!

[Hawkeye-X]

We got the momentum back baby, after Harkin endorsed Dean. I'm also hearing some rumors about another major endorsement or two from a non-politician. It isn't even a Hollywood type endorsement, but still a major one, so we've got to keep focused on Iowa! Two very important endorsement related to their own communities.

7. Hello there

[madfloridian]

8. Our group is working hard here and growing.

We are writing a lot of letters. Our great hosts are traveling to North Central Florida tomorrow as a beginning to expanding our base of communications. We are lucky with our hosts, who have the time and the skills and the inspiration.

9. I'm hearing rumors..

that the Des Moines Register will endorse Dean on Sunday. Don't quote me on that though.

All-in-all though, it looks like Dean will have a nicer media coverage week in Iowa next week. If the newspaper endorsement is true, that leads on Sunday and into Monday.

Then Dean will campaign with Gore (and possible Bradley) next week.

And Dean will likely cruise to victory in the D.C. primary event on Tuesday.

And of course, there will be hordes of Dean supporters invading the state to rally for the doc.

It's lookin' up, folks. Lookin' up, indeed! With a victory in Iowa, Dean gets a bounce in New Hampshire. With victories in both of these first two states, he can expect a bounce nationwide in the week between NH and SC. A state-by-state nationwide poll bounce, Dean will go from "slight leads/tied-at-the-top" to clear leads in many crucial states. The media will have the winner's aura installed around him, all while asking, "Can anyone stop Howard Dean?"

Harkin's endorsement was very well-timed. It stops the bleeding, and it'll be the talk of folks all weekend long. Excellent work :)

14. Georgia contingent checking in

I'll be attending GOTV training tomorrow afternoon. The Dean organization in Georgia is AMAZING.

And here's something I thought was outtasight. When I attended this week's MeetUp, I overheard our host and several others talking about the sad state of affairs of the Dem party out here in our rural GA counties. The host was so upset she personally recruited some people to start up a County organization again. The guy was involved in prodding his own residual County organization to get back into action. And I will be attending my county's Dem Exec Committee at their next meeting.

We ARE taking back our party, revitalizing democracy!!!

[daria_g]

26. Hi all.

Check. Probably will be in New Hampshire to do some driving in late January (if that college student I talked to over at DFA ever gets back to me). Will be some local visibility events and such, in the meantime. It's very exciting!

[joefree1]

29. Hey Daria_g

Welcome to Du. Glad to have you on the Dean Team.

[slinkerwink]

35. hey daria, are you in Western MA?

if you are, I'd like to get a ride out with you to help canvass for the Dean camapaign and the GOTV efforts.

[Castilleja]

30. Hello!

to y'all.

[shance]

31. Thanks Hawkeye. Its time to fight back. These attacks are insane

and highly unwarranted, totally blown beyond any realm of logic.

I dont know why but I am again amazed at the brazen lack of ethics and morality from members of our own party and of course the ever present Republicans.

Dean supporters and Democratic Party supporters, take a walk down memory lane and remember what was inflicted on Al Gore and Bill Clinton.

They didnt have the support that was necessary to fight back and defend themselves. We now know that ignoring the attacks will not make them go away, only give them a green light to continue their fire.

[Mr. McD]

33. Check'n in

Hi all.:hi:

[DarienComp]

36. here

[not systems]

38. good day

Go Dean!

[Sideways]

39. Go Dean From The Middle East

I thought I might make it back to the states for part of the primaries but now that we are moving to UAE that isn't going to happen.

This is my first public declaration of my support for Dr Dean not because I had doubts I just kept away from most of the political threads because I got sick of listening to a bunch of vapid shit( not from the Dean supporters but from the rest of the ZOO.)

The Harkin endorsement is magnificent and the media is OBVIOUSLY scared to fucking death of Dean. Kick some ass Howard we've had ours kicked so hard by the GOP for the last 3+ years and we need your help so we can do a bit of ass whoop of our own.:evilgrin:

[tedoll78]
