Dean has always struck me as a bright, labile, explosive bipolar

Me, too.

He's the candidate for thrill seekers.

Dean May Be a Leftie, But He's No McGovern, Mondale or Dukakis - He's a George Wallace

A friend in New Hampshire who attended one of Dean's campaign rallies out of curiosity, commented that he cannot remember a situation where he saw so many angry and resentful white people. In a recent speech, Dean compared the situation of Americans today, to that of Americans during the Revolutionary War, in that in both eras, America was under the rule of oppressive kings named George.

Dean's political campaigning style sounded familiar. I scratched my head and tried to figure out which past politician had the style of Dean. Then it occurred to me...of course...George Wallace in '68. Dean is appealing to the same emotions of angry and resentful whites, but there is a difference in class. Wallace appealed to angry lower-class whites who were members of union households, while Dean is appealing to angry upper middle-class Starbucks yuppies. But the politics of resentment is the same in both cases.

"Dean is appealing to angry upper middle-class Starbucks yuppies."

That about says it all right there. I think it must considered what the definition of the word "upper" is.
