75. "any other path is unknown, unknowable" sounds philosophically erudite
but is only true for those who don't know any other path.

Fact is that the other path is very well known to all of us.

Dean was the chair of the DNC and lead us to victory and to 59 votes in the Senate. So the path we would be on were Dean still head of the DNC is very well known and the path were he chief of staff in the White House quite knowable. Based on what we know and just a smithereen of reason, we can surmise that we would not have lost the Kennedy seat in Massachusetts had Dean been in either position.
