Dean Derides Washington Politicians In Slap At Rivals



January 23, 2004, 9:44 AM EST

Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean on Friday derided Washington politicians who "say anything just to get elected," a slap at his Beltway-based rivals. He expanded his target to Alan Greenspan, saying the Federal Reserve chairman "has become too political" and should be replaced.

The onetime front-runner, seeking to rally his sagging campaign by casting himself as a Washington outsider, criticized Greenspan as he assailed President Bush's tax cut, arguing that they were geared to benefit the wealthy

"Listen to what they say. You can have middle-class tax cuts. You can have health care for every American ... you can help every American go to college. Do you believe that?" Dean asked a crowd of 200 people at a town hall outside of Manchester.

The former Vermont governor did not name his opponents for the nomination but clearly had them in mind when he told the crowd it was time to stand up to President Bush and Republican polices.

I think the test in NH might boil down to folks that want a tax cut vs folks that want the tax cut repealed.

1. No. It'll be who can beat Bush. Then no new taxes for middle class,
rather than a particular tax plan. Then healthcare.
