Dean is becoming the great white hope of the democrat party. They even have seminar callers for talk shows. I just heard an obvious one.
Bush has good speech writers.
Anyone but Bush.
Dean is passionate.
To: NYC GOP Chick
This reads like the Times is trying to push the Dean campaign as a "singles-dating-service/jobs program" for wimpy total losers like Clay Johnson, 26.
I fear he'll be back on the floor in the fetal position with his new future ex-girlfriend's cats on campaign night.

Alex Perkins, a 32-year-old policy coordinator for the campaign, quit his job, sold his house in Seattle and showed up at the campaign office offering to work free. Austin Burke, 22, who researches the other candidates, drove from Phoenix -- it took him six days -- and then just wandered around Burlington asking where the Dean office was. Matthew Bethell, 20, a British university student, left London and took the year off to volunteer full time in New Hampshire, even though he can't vote in American elections.
Trustafarians around the globe are drawn to the Dean campaign as if to a weekend-long, outdoor puppetry workshop/Phish concert.

Think of all the future married couples that will meet at Dean rallies, buy Yugos (as made famous in that song that Rush always plays), only to be crushed by an SUV. Darwinism at it's finest.

But he surprises me by saying he never would have come up with the Dean software, or left school, if his first serious girlfriend hadn't broken up with him last spring.
''The worst thing is we aren't even friends,'' he says glumly. ''I invited her to be my friend'' -- he gestures to his computer monitor -- ''I mean on Friendster. No word yet.''
I cant take it. I just cant take it anymore.
Its like Im on a tragic safari through loserville.
I have to stop here before I learn anymore about their mating habits, or obvious lack thereof.
Howie will give them jobs, girlfriends, hipness, hobbies, good vibes, herbal tea, healthcare, internet friends and a sense of purpose. Hes like Manson, both Charlie and Marilyn, rolled into one gelatinous glob of hysterically angry goodness.

Teachout likes to ''thesaurusize'' words on the computer. Right now, she tells me, she is hard at work looking for a word to replace ''citizen.'' ''It would be a word to describe someone for whom politics is a part of their personal life and social life,'' she says. The word she wants is "comrade". And don't forget the Little Red Book and unisex Mao cap.

Is this a news/feature story, or is it a campaign ad for Dean from the NYT's?
The new pick up place, the Dean campaign.

Thank you! This was definitely the most enlightening and humorous article I've read in weeks.
If you can't find a date for the prom, distribute pamphlets for Dean.

Only the NYT could attempt to portray Dean in a good light and end up casting his supporters as pathetic losers. Talk about out of the mainstream...
To: NYC GOP Chick
One woman, Kelly Jacobs of Hernando, Miss., took it upon herself to travel around the Memphis area for 15 weeks, standing on a single street corner for a week at a time, to promote Dean.
Crazy homeless woman...

I swear, reading the first half of this article, about all the nuts, is the saddest thing I've ever read.
Pathetic.
