My letter to Gov. Dean:
Dear Gov. Dean:

I am writing this today because I am saddened by the preconception of events that lead to the defeat of Sen. Joe Lieberman. I am dismayed that the MSM is using one aspect of Ned Lamont's platform (the war in Iraq) and using this as the main reason for the defeat last night. It's not wholly about the war, it's about the American People who desire and deserve to have representatives in Congress that actually care and listen to their constituents and are willing to live up to the expectation of their position by living to the creed of, "For the people, By the people and Of the people" - This has been missing from American politics for a very long time and "the people" are getting sick and fed up with the politics as usual. Lamont's win means so much more than what's being said and I wish that this message would get out. If you are interested in what some of us are saying, visit here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/. I am sure you will not be disappointed with you fellow Democrats on this issue.

Thank you for your time,
Sincerely,

I thought his announcement about yesterday's primary was a bit lacking... there is a potential for a real momentum here and let's not let it get lost in the fray.

1. I am anxiously waiting for Dean's lead on this...
I sense he will take a little time, to make sure he crosses his T's and dot' s the I's. This statement will be a full force anti-war message/Democrat Rally theme.

2. As I have always had faith
in Dean - I hope it's not just about the war. There is so much more that is wrong with this country and having real people that represent us is more the issue - not just the elite few in the Good Old Boys club and not letting the rest of the public in on the secret.

Of course their are other BIG issues besides the War....Dean will pick the right tone and focus to maximize our message.
