Text, webcast, and intro by Art Torres of Howard Dean's CA speech.

The one that the AP writer lectured him about for being so partisan. The one that is flipping DU minds over things the media has quoted. It is outstanding.

Introduction by Art Torres, who said he though this was the best speech Howard Dean has ever given:

"It was in 1998, in a high rise in San Francisco, that a Governor of Vermont came to visit. I had never met him before, but he was very important even then, because he was the Chairman of the Democratic Governor's Association. He told me he was going work very hard to help elect Democrats to state houses across the country. And I want to thank him personally for helping us elect Gray Davis in 1998 as Democratic Governor after eighteen years of Republican rule. That was Howard Dean. When he ran for President and did not succeed at first, he didn't stop. He didn't say I'm done, I quit, I walk away."
