30. I agree with what he said, but many of his supporters...
Are being very duplicitous on the matter. If Al From or Terri McAullife or anyone from the DLC/DNC had said something about needing to make overtures to white southerners, many (not all but many) Dean supporters would be having a total shitfit over it and that's what I find hypocritical. Personally while I think he could have chosen his words better, I do agree with the sentiment he expressed 100%. However I also agreed with it when the DLC/DNC issued that memo about needing to appeal to Nascar Dad's a month or so ago that everyone got in a snit over.

You can split hairs all you want and justify it with whatever Bush-esque parsing of words you can come up with. But the fact is I agree with what Dean said and I agreed with what the DLC/DNC said. However there are too many on here who are not going to be honest about their reaction to the one versus their reaction to the former.
