172. Dean's got the grass roots to keep the energy going
And who ever gets the nod, is going to get a whole lot more energy. I assume if Dean wins the nomination your not just going to throw up your hands and surrender, so your fear is misplaced. A candidate without deep grass roots, and many progressive supporters is the one more likely to loose. For two or three elections Rethug-lite has not worked because the left has no where to turn and the centrists can't make up their minds between two similar choices. It's time we put strategy (so far a loosing one in the cellar). Dean is not the most liberal, or the best candidate for many of us, but then he has engaged more people than any other candidate and for that reaason is our best chance.
