From my read of the Sunday punditry, Dem landscape is shaking out to be
two strongholds facing each other down. There is a Dem wing that wants Republican feet held to the fire, and a wing that is decidely more centrist and wants to take power from the Repubs, but will not point fingers at the criminals because they are friendly and intimate with many of them.

Sad to see how they are now using Dean as a focus for that divide, instead of using his political talent as Chairman of the DNC to UNITE the party.

Count me as one of those disgusted with Carville and Begala for not STICKING with the DNC chairman when Matalin took an axe to him.

The day Carville and Begala notice and SPEAK UP that the real problem for Dems is the corporate media that won't book an honest or fair debate on its airwaves is the day they will get my attention once more.

7. The sat their mute AFTER they accused Dem lawmakers of not confronting
the GOP more.

Bizarre. It's as if they are there to attack Dems while not pointing out GOP lies attacking Dems.

They want to be seen as saviors for the party when they help pile on the media lies used against the party.

2. Dude, who do you think Carville and Begala are?
They are on the talk shows for a reason, you know. How do you think they got jobs with CNN? It ain't because of their anti-corporate rhetoric.

4. Well, the colors are really showing now. They don't even bother concealing
it.

Carville doesn't want his wife to go to jail. ALL the DC guys knew about Rove outing Plame but NONE of them would talk about it for the entire year before the election. Then Carville writes a KissKarl'sAss loveletter for TIME, knowing damn well that Karl was a TRAITOT to this country and STOLE that election, too.

5. She looked witch-like.
I have something else that bugged me about that, but I will probably post in a new topic.
