#1 And I thought the next four years were going to be boring! Dean adds a whole new (crazy) dynamic that the LLL desparately need. Not matter if you wear a tin-foil hat, KKK sheets, or nothing at all, Dean is the man for the people and the party.
Paid for by Conservatives for Boxer 2008.

#2 If Dean is picked to head the DNC it will be a real scream.

#3 Dean will actually be very good for the DNC. He has the wackos behind him but he recognizes that the Democrats meed to get votes from those with Confederate flags in the back window of their pick-up in order to win.

#4 Anyone who claims to be a metrosexual and then admits he doesn't know what that means is perfect for the DNC.

#5 he recognizes that the Democrats need to get votes from those with Confederate flag

I thought that those people had ever voted Democrat.
And that having worn KKK's white hood was mandatory for a Democrat with ambitions. :-)

#6 An awful lot of people in the South see the Confederate battle flag as a symbol of the region, not a political symbol or a symbol of ones racial feelings. I think the symbolism of the Confederate battle flag is misread by most people, even in the South. A symbol such as the flag can have different meanings to different people.

#8 You remember the term Dixiecrat, JFM, for those loyal Southern Democrats. However, along with most of the rest of the country, they have been turning to the Republican party in recent years as better representing their socially conservative outlook.

#9 Yep, a screaming lefty metrosexual from New England. That's really going to resonate with Red State voters.

#10 DNC Chair's role is first and foremost to raise money. If "Screw 'Em" Kos's favorite guy is now head of the party's fund-raising arm, it tells you all you need to know about where the party's new center of gravity is. Dreadful.

Republicans should not be too smug about this. It's truly dreadful for this country to have the main opposition party hijacked by people who openly sympathize with fascist neck-sawers and killers of our troops. Heaven help this country.

#11 Clairifcation of above: Dean as Chair means the party is now going to rely heavily on groups like Kos, DU, MoveOn etc for its fund-raising to the detriment of centrist donors. Very, very bad news for everyone.
