Dean's a idiot
His campaign fell flat because he couldn't project a forward thinking message. Kerry did a better job, but not enough to overcome the smear campaign against him.
The DNC really needs to give him the boot. It's not that he doesn't have some good ideas, but Dean doesn't realize that his job is to
support the party rather than make the headlines himself.
Neither Terry McCulliff or Ken Melman (sp?) ever had this problem.
The Dem's big issue is a lack of coordination. The Alito hearings were a perfect example.
The GOP has a great ability to frame an issue in simple terms then use the various outlets to institutionalize it before anyone even has a chance to tear it down.
Combine that with the Administration's secrecy, disdain for the media and near inability to tell the truth when pressed...and it's no wonder the average joe hasn't a clue as to what's really going down.
