29. I think it's still too early
for this stuff. Dean does have to do interviews, but he also has to carry the burden of being 'Howard Dean, SuperDemocrat.' Dean has said that he wants to go to the Red States and work on grassroots problems. Sounds like a good idea to me. He is going to have to be almost constantly travelling and meeting and greeting the people at the local level.

There is a lot of work to do. A lot of the State Parties are either moribund or corrupt. (What the hell went on in Michigan anyway and what happened to $1mil of John Kerry's money anyway?)

To the best of my knowledge, Kerry has not offered to share his e-mail list with the Party. (He certainly referred to it at Terry McAuliffe's Farewell Party as his list, which is fine by me.) I am going to wait a bit longer on this before I make up my mind. I think that Dean is starting to learn where some of the 'bodies' are buried in the Dem Party and learning the magnitude of the task he has in front of him. I will give him time to figure out which way to go and how to proceed. (But hands off JK. I don't like the severe criticism as it it is unwarranted and harmful to the cause.)
