1,000 Posts to Applaud Howard Dean

10. I think so to and especially when you look at the nature of past campaigns...

He was really the first to successfully say get up from the couch or dinner table, get to a meetup, and let's all do something about it. I thought it was a real testament to that call that the organization he spurred the construction of has continued, and under his brother Jim Dean is still carrying out the mission of taking back politics from the grassroots up.

I do have to admit, getting him confirmed to any major nomination required post would have been a real challenge with the Republican hatred of him and a senior adviser post isn't exactly his style; he could definitely be more welcoming though . Mitch McConnell is still scared:

"Think about that," McConnell said on the Senate floor Tuesday, according to The Hill. "We have 14 million people out of work… and the president is out there doing his best Howard Dean impersonation."
