Reply #16: With regards to your comments on Dean's campaign [View All]

I agree, Dean is no progressive. But it's important to remember that Dean's campaign is about so much more than Dean. It is about taking the party over from the Washington hacks, pollsters and spinsters -- and putting it in the hands of a vibrant grassroots movement.

I'm a Kucinich supporter right now, but I have to say that the Dean "phenomenon" is pretty damned exciting, not to mention a helluva lot bigger than Howard Dean himself. What is most exciting about it, IMHO, is that it scares the living shit out of the Washington "insider" crowd -- hence the frequent attacks from Lieberman and the DLC.
