Republicans going on on the attack by harping about Dean...
e-mail I got from my Repub. mother that is apparently making the rounds:

As if their newly-discovered ties to Jack Abramoff weren't enough to give Democrats in leadership a bad hair week, Tuesday brought fresh comments from DNC Chairman Howard Dean that sent his party running for cover. During an interview on WOAI Radio in San Antonio, he said: "the idea that we're going to win the War in Iraq is an idea which is just plain wrong."

Like passengers on a sinking vessel, his fellow Democrats had to choose between jumping overboard and going down with the ship. Senate candidates Claire McCaskill (MO) and Rep. Harold Ford, Jr. (TN) chose to jump ship, and Senator Debbie Stabenow (MI) looked like a deer in headlights after being asked four different ways about her thoughts on the Iraq War. Rumors abound that leaders in the Democrat Party are desperately trying to find a closet with strong enough locks to keep Chairman Dean put away for the duration of the campaign season.

2. more: Howard Dean Hates All Republicans - tells troops they can't win
I don't recall Dean speaking to the troops - do any of you???


http://www.gopsenators.com/blogs/blog.aspx?ID=1317

Dean’s Comments Came Just One Week After Far Left Group MoveOn.org Began Circulating A Petition Calling For Troop Withdrawal…

-snip-

…MoveOn Predicted That They Would Take Over the Democrat Party…

“Now It’s Our Party: We Bought It, We Own It, And We’re Going To Take It Back.” (Adam C. Smith, “Unshaven, Unbowed And In Our Face,” St. Petersburg Times, February 18, 2005)

It’s One Thing For Howard Dean To “Hate All Republicans,” But Should He Be Telling Our Troops That They Can’t Win?

8. If Any Dem Shies Away From This
- regardless of what their opinion is, whether or not they agree with Howard - they don't have the spine to represent us.
