Is there any way we can all organize to get Howard Dean back in charge of the DNC?

I'm tired of learning about republican failures on news programs, instead of seeing them being put in ads during popular tv shows. The Dem's plan covers more people, and saves more money than the crap the GOP put out. I had to get that from David Schuster(?) That should be in an ad somewhere. What is Tim kaine doing?

I think Rahm kept Dean out, and if I had to choose between Dean and Rahm............ I'll go wit Dean

Dean was shunned and Rahm Emanuel is made chief of staff. Where is the justice? The DLC is still calling the shots. I'd like to see him take on the Wall Street bunch. He worked at Smith Barney before leaving to go to med school and his father was a banker. Fire Geitner and let Howard give 'em hell.

He must be the most shy & timid DNC chair in history. We used to see McCulliffe & Dean all the damn time- at least you knew who they were.

Where the hell is this guy and what the hell is he even doing?

would challenge that.

on the news shows, anyway. And he makes more money and travels a lot less with what he's doing now.

sign me up.

miss the Dr. Gov. Chairman Dean. It seems as though the democratic wing of the dem party has been kicked to the curb now.

Howard was the best thing that ever happened to the DNC. It's because of him a Dem was elected in '08 thanks to the 50-state strategy. Of course Rhambo will NEVER permit this.

On edit: sp.

I love Howard Dean.

Officially or not.

Tim Kaine might actually be worse than McAulliffe, and I didn't want to think that was possible.

But once Obama became president, he essentially told Dr. Dean and the activist progressives, thanks for the help, but now sit down and shut up.

Be very curious what will happen in 2012. Will RAM Emanuel ask the progressives for help? Or will they dump the progressives all together and go for the disgruntled, disenfranchised, conservative republic ants.

Rahm thinks that it is just about the money. Obama would have all the support he needed to pass his initiatives if he had left the 50-state strategy in place...which by the way was a major reason that he won although he has given no acknowledgement of that. If it was all about how he can organize and motivate people, then he would have had the Town Hallers and teabaggers overwhelmed. But, then, do they really want to make good on all those promises????

What happens when we just stay home! Will all the money from the special interest groups buy the commitment and passion that got him elected? I think not as I sometimes encountered the paid "volunteers" for the McCain campaign and they were at best a half-hearted bunch.

we peons have no voice

They need their excuses.

Seems to defy logic that a political party would carry on that way, assuming there are 2 parties that oppose each other.

And yet I see evidence of what you suggest all the time...

If he left on his own that's the end of it.

I think the point that we may need a dynamic, high profile, lightning rod, pro-reform DEM as chair stands.

Rahm hates Dean for some reason.
