Mississippi Dem Chairman Wayne Dowdy endorses Dean for DNC Chair
Our new state Democratic chair, former congressman Wayne Dowdy has endorsed Howard Dean to lead the DNC...AT least one good ole boy gets what Dean is all about!

5. I think the Governor's on the right track....He's gotten a bad rap in the
media as "loony left" when he's anything but. He's a straight talker, which many people down here appreciate, and he speaks a language people respond to. During that the idiotic "front-loaded" primaries, Dean was introduced and promptly stereotyped to his disadvantage. As chairman, he'll have 4 years to re-introduce himself, this time on his terms.

He brings out passion, can raise money as well or better than anyone, is sharp as a tack, and is really a candidate that liberals and moderates should be able to unite behind.

The job of DNC chairman has Howard Dean's name written all over it. He's the only choice wit any sparkle.

I like Rosenberg-so does Dean, he'll be on the team and we'll need party chairman after Dean. He can consider it an internship

I also like Donnie Fowler, but he, too, has years left to make his mark.

Martin Frost is an excellent tactician and he hates Republicans passionately, but he's about as exciting as kissing your aunt.

Roemer is unacceptable.

Dean is the only candidate with juice and, God only knows, the Democratic party could use some "juice" right now.


Lets hope the powers that be recognize the inevitable

2. Is he white or black?
The reason I ask is because Dean could stand to prove that he can attract both white southerners and blacks; to show that he is not the candidate of latte-drinking, NPR listening white liberal elites. We all know this stereotype is unfair, but others need to see it.

who hunts, fishes, drives a pick-up and lives in the boondocks. Dowdy is EXACTLY the type of Democrat Dean is reaching out to.
