"It's hard to believe it was 10 years ago tonight. On this day a decade ago — January 19, 2004 — I gave one of the most famous speeches in the history of American politics. Or perhaps 'infamous' would be more accurate," Dean wrote in an email with "YEEEAAARRRRRGGGHHHH!!!" as its subject line. "I'm guessing you might remember the climactic moment of that night, as I enthusiastically rallied my presidential campaign supporters in the aftermath of a disappointing finish in the Iowa Caucus."

What a joke.

This last 10 years FLEW by. I cannot believe that was a decade ago.

I remember hearing that scream on the news one morning my TV comes on with Fox News automagically at 6AM and I was still half asleep when I heard it

It woke me up completely and I immediately thought “his chances are OVER”

What I don't understand is how he managed to take over the Democrat party headquarters after that- or was it given to him as a consolation prize?

The “Dean scream” is an example of what can go wrong when a candidate extemporizes on national TV. Political consultants often earn their pay simply by keeping candidates disciplined, focused, and saying and doing predictable things. Contrary to what many candidates seem to think, running for office does not mean that one is suddenly endowed with political sense.

"Dean argued that his scream actually launched a movement that would continue to fuel the Democratic Party into the future."

For some libs, the nation just can't die fast enough.

Such goofy “Daily Show” type kitsch actually appeals to the low-info Millenial voter.

"Did you see Dean's speech last night? Oh my God! Now I hear the cows in Iowa are afraid of getting mad Dean disease. I'm no pundit but it's always a bad sign when at the end of your speech, your aide is shooting you with a tranquilizer gun." —Jay Leno

"Did you see Howard Dean ranting and raving? Here's a little tip Howard — cut back on the Red Bull." —David Letterman

[Huskrrrr]

I’m sure there are still a few closet “Deanie Weinies” out there somewhere.

Oh man that was great, I was laughing my butt off YEEHHAAAAAA and an atomic explosion LOL! They have to update it though: “We’re going to Marxism we’re going to fascism we’re going to help terrorism, we’re going to Benghazi, we’re going to spying we’re going to racism we’re going to Kenya YEEEAAAAHHHAAA!”

yes... he is delusional... that scream was the beginning of the end for him...

I don’t particularly like him much, but for him to lose a chance of President over a scream is about as stupid as one of our own losing it over “Macaca”. Seriously the media is dreadful.

Remember those days of innocence when we thought it wouldn't be possible for any democrat candidate to be a worse president than Al Gore, Howard Dean, or John Kerry?

[OriginalChristian]

He should run again and use the scream video in his campaign. Its his turn... /s

[Jack Hydrazine]

LOL!
