Hugh Hewitt MEGA PING!!

[nopardons]

Absoluetely MARVELOUS; Hugh at his best. :-)

[backhoe]

John, Dean is an angry crank whose rantings and ravings will energize the base of Bush-haters while alienating everyone else.

All we have to do is stand by, and watch him implode.

The unfolding of current events- like the capture of Saddam, and the information we are learning- will be the end of him. He's in a hole, and still digging...

[.45MAN]

Hooray!! for Hugh Hewitt. Dean is really on a self destructive course and he is taking a large number of Demoncrats with him. Gotta love it!! Morning John..

[.45MAN]

You got that right backhoe! Boy your up early too! How you dooing?

Dean vs. Bush: Would it be close?***Former Vermont governor tries to recast himself on foreign policy, but questions persist whether he's too liberal to win.

……………………….The events of the past week - his endorsement by former Vice President Gore and a major foreign-policy speech made all the more newsworthy by the capture of Saddam Hussein - have firmly given him the aura of presumptive Democratic nominee. And even if the Democrats' informal "stop Dean" movement is pedaling as fast as ever, no single, clear alternative to Dean within the party has emerged.

Thus, analysts say, it is not too soon for the former Vermont governor to shift toward the center and aim his sights solely on the president. In fact, such a move could have the effect of bringing in more Democratic primary supporters, beyond his hard-core liberal base.

"The sooner he begins [to pivot], the better off he'll be" in the general election, says Larry Sabato, a political scientist at the University of Virginia, who characterized Dean's foreign policy speech on Monday as moderate overall. "For a while I thought it would cost him with his key supporters, but it's clear that it has not... They want him to do whatever it takes to win."***

Of that I have no doubt. Another year of reinventing, spinning and lying (and that's just the media).

Howard of the Hague

An apt description, eh?

The commie rat added another communist to his foreign policy team the other day, John, the traitor Mark Halperin.

Halperin is also ABC news director.

What an eye-opener!

Dean reflects the burning hatred, with no intelligence and a serious lack of real convictions or perspective..

I heard Mort Kondrake this evening say he had been in the Green room with Madeline Albright when she,with serious demeanor,asked him if he thought we already had Bin Ladin and were waiting until closer to the election to reveal it.

He said the dems opinion on Bush was irrational and blinded by the hatred. He was taken aback that someone with Albright's experience would exhibit it.

Boy you're up early too! How you doing?

Like rust, I never sleep...

Seriously, we're all OK- Taffy likes to get me up early for the morning Rat Hunt-- she thinks rats are some kind of wonderful trophy animal, while I just can't get enthused over catching such vermin-- but it's her job, and she's good at it.

I wish I could recall the name of the cartoonist who drew it- years ago, I remember seeing a cartoon of a hunting lodge, with heads of different types of varmints mounted over the fireplace- rats, mice, etc., and a couple of dogs and cats sharing drinks by the fire and reminising over the "game" they had killed...

MEG, what really strikes me about the Left's near-loony anger is the irrationality of it all.

We on the right/libertarian side were slandered throughout the Clinton years for being "haters," but at least it had roots in facts and evidence. Whether it was selling security secrets to the Red Chinese or blow jobs in the Oval Office, there were reasons to doubt if the Clintons were fit to hold office of any kind, let alone high office.

With President Bush, it's so extreme, it is almost a parody of itself. Comic-opera stuff.

The Left makes me think of a band of mutant, semi-itelligent cockroaches who just learned how to switch on the kitchen lights, and don't realize what they are revealing to the rest of the house...

[backhoe]

semi-itelligent

Duh- the Pulp Mill must be emitting Stupid Gas again...

[Monti Cello]

Is it possible that Dean is deliberately trying to look insane in order to make Hillary look rational by comparison?

Steyn on Dean

[Brian Allen]

<< ... No single person better embodies the spirit of the delusional and crank-infected left in this country than Howard Dean.

Howard of the Hague ... is simply and conclusively nuts, and you know it, I know it and most of Dean's people know it ....

But Dean doesn't know it ....

Dean isn't fit to be president of the United States because he lacks even a high-school level competency of threat assessment. Period. [And] ... even Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary voters will conclude the same thing. >>

Bah Bah Bubba-Howie -- Brian

And even if the Democrats' informal "stop Dean" movement is pedaling as fast as ever, no single, clear alternative to Dean within the party has emerged.

Why does there have to be a "single, clear alternative" yet? Let the voters decide.

The nation wouldn't be in the situation of having Dean frame the debate if the news magazines, etc, weren't so quick to declare unbeatable frontrunners.

Look at Wesley Clark. The media annointed him the person to stop Dean before he was even registered in the Democratic Party.

If I recall correctly, GWB actually had to beat people in the primaries before he was guaranteed the nomination.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

All the bundled campaign money is poised and ready. The media is anxious to know who to elevate.

[savedbygrace]

I am deeply saddened by these developments, becuase they likely mean that Dean will NOT be the Dims' nominee for 2004. That in turn is scary, because . . . well, I don't want to think about that right now.
