Dean Vows to Flip State Legislatures
Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean (D) announced that his political action committee would launch a campaign to flip state legislatures around the country, the Huffington Post reports.
"In a conference call, Dean said that Democracy for America's 'Purple to Blue Project' would work to swing state legislatures from Republican to Democrat, starting in Virginia, then adding three states in 2014."
