Dean supporters should be pissed.
Edited on Thu Jan-08-04 11:40 PM by Bleachers7
Think about this... NBC has had access to those videos long enough to watch 90 of them. Why are they reporting them 11 days before an election? What is their agenda? This is the last minute type bombshell that can blow a campaign.

5. The tapes are actually pretty flattering...and certainly not a negative
However, spin can make anything seem unflattering.

You can bet on this, McAullife and Co. are feeding these little stink bombs to the media in a steady stream. The "stop Dean" movement is centered in the DNC and they have long tenticles.

3. It is all part of the process
If the videos 'damn' Dean, then so be it, he wasn't strong enough to take on Bush then. If the videos don't, though, will it change anyone's minds? Will those who have so vehemently scraped for muck realize that they have become Bush's best campaigners or will they return to the cesspool in hopes of finding something else to tear down the Dean campaign?

Dean hasn't said anything that Iowans don't already know.

7. Plenty of bombs on the way
Dean has pissed off many people and now it's time for them to drop the load on him...

Not that it's a good thing, but Dean's strategery was to piss off the media.

The press has a nasty habit of building up a candidate like Icarus...and we know what happened to him.
