I heard on one of the news shows that Howard Deans deserves a lot of credit for getting the GOTV movement started with new media back in 04. I haven't heard from him in awhile but I totally aggree with the pundit that said it.

(23,998 posts)Only had half an ear on him, as my daughter and I were talking. She shook his hand, back in 2004 at a rally here. My kids and I remain strong admirers of Dr. Dean.

(54,443 posts)Howard told me in February 2009 that if he got shut out of the Obama administration that he would spend his time "raising hell for causes he believed in."
He was, as usual, true to his word. This is his latest.
I posted about this already. Not one response.
