Howard Dean urges voters to reject measures governor supports

[Ernesto]

"Gov. Schwarzenegger put these things on the ballot because he is, in fact, the captive of special interests," Dean said to applause and cheers of the party's faithful who packed a union hall in Hayward to hear his fiery address. "Arnold Schwarzenegger came in and then sold himself, and the state of California, to special interests."

1. yeah!

We didn't want any stinkin' especially costly election
and we don't want Arnie's specially abhorrent ballot
measures.

Go, Doc, Go!
Angelides and Westly are silent on these measures
and they shouldn't be.

3. Dean typifies our problem.

Dean always comes out saying we should oppose Republican measures, which is all well and good, however I can't recall him loudly and clearly suggesting what measures we as Democrats should be supporting. All to often our party is defined by what we oppose and not what we would improve in America. If we want to win elections we need to have a simple & easy to understand plan which average voters can recall much like the repuke's "contract with America". That's salesmanship and we need it.
