Reply #34: I agree that the time is right to take advantage of the movement

that WE have begun, DESPITE THE DNC, not because of them. here's my letter:

Dear DNC, I am writing to express my support for Howard Dean as the new leader of the DNC. We need a smart, articulate FIGHTER on our side, one who can give as good, if not better, than he gets. One who can go toe-to-toe with Ed Gillespie and not back down. I am one of the growing number of disgruntled Democrats who is sick and tired of seeing my beliefs marginalized by a party that is beholden to special interests. Now more than ever, we need to DISTINGUISH ourselves from the Republicans, not ACT LIKE THEM! If you fail to take advantage of the impending disaster in Iraq and with the economy here at home and continue to offer weak leadership in the tradition of Terry McAuliffe, you are going to go down without my help. I was a Precinct Chair in the previous election but I am becoming convinced that devoting my efforts to helping the Green Party elect people at all levels of government will do more to return the government of this country back into the hands of the people than wasting anymore time on your "Republican-Lite" approach. I sincerely hope that you make the right decision at your meeting next week. The future of OUR democracy is at stake. Thank you.
