Paging Dr. DEAN!!!
The rightwing dickheads have Democrats playing defense; Ken Mehlman seems to be everywhere, bashing our party and Howard Dean in particular. The talkinghead then repeats whatever Mehlman said about Dean for the rest of the show!!

I'm definitely NOT saying this is Dean's fault, but I am saying: we've got a smart, outspoken fighter and we need him out there fighting. The DNC should hammer the media to get him on every show, with equal time, whenever Mehlman appears.

You'd think OUR party was in control of the mess we're in the way they attack, attack, attack Democrats. And yes, I'm going to write the DNC.

Grrrr... :rant:

3. I know -- but it seems like Mehlman is ubiquitous.
I want to see Dean getting that much exposure, especially to counter Mehlman's smears.

2. As long as we ourselves continue to fight as well, even if that
is just calling out those moles that smell up this message board..

We have to remember that we are all in this together, we need to stand behind each other and yes by all means, let Dean know how you feel....

4. I'm not mad at Dean or the DNC.
I'm mad at the GOP machinery and the media's collusion.

5. How about rehashing an old slogan. "I'm Mad As Hell, And
I Am Not Going To Take It Anymore"

8. That's sorta what I wrote to hardball@msnbc.com.
I know it's an exercise in futility, but I feel compelled.

When will Nora ask Howard Dean to explain why Republican policy has failed? When will she ask a Democratic strategist to explain why their party is divided? When will she quote Sy Hersch on Republicans, instead of Bob Novak on Democrats?

10. When she gets reprogrammed I guess or is not threatened with her job
that is of course on the assumption that she doesn't believe what she says on tv, its alllll so confusing these days since it is so hard to believe that people that I assume are college grads could be so clueless....

9. I think we need to coach the Democrats that go on the air...
Not only should they call out the Repubs when they characterize the Democrats as "weak on defense", no credibility on national defense, and the predictable charges, but they should be ready to cut the Repub down with a good comeback...
