Hoping to Broaden his Appeal in the South, Dean admits"Im a Bigot"

Dateline Vermont...The Dean campaign admitted today that Howard Dean is not only a metrosexual but is also a bigot.

"I'm seeking the southern bigot vote." admitted Dean, "and people need to understand that I'm a bigot just like other southerners"

Capitalizing on bigotry may be a risky political move however, many experts are unsure just how this will play out in the general election.

"While Dean has been solicitous of Reverend Sharpton....the black vote is not an absolute certainty at this point," says Harvard professor, Shirley Froid, "Many blacks have announced they plan to vote for Bill Clinton in the next election."

"It shows a lack of education about the South on his part," says presidential candidate John Edwards, " We, in the South are not all bigots....some of us are black"

Coming on the heals that he plans to talk about Jesus, and eat chicken fried steaks, the announcement by Dean that he too is a bigot is seen as a "full Southern strategy" meant to solidify his base across the country.

And Edwards is proof that some Southerners really are stupid. I can't decide who's worse, sanctimonious Dean or "I'll be your b!tch" Edwards. While I am sad that Edwards was elected to office in NC, I thank goodness that he was born in SC. They can apologize for him.

Oh, he's got it all figured out. He'll just admit to being a bigot while he's in the south. He won't mention it while he's up north.

LOL at your article.

It would be interesting if the French/American spat over details of the Air France debacle, as in 'we released everybody, what's your problem?', were really a clever plot hatched by both countries to confound the enemy and make them feel secure, etc., so we could round up everybody. But the French have such a long, nasty record of treachery. If we want to survive, let alone win, we have to practice real politik come what may, no matter whom we 'offend'. PC crap has to go. Trust no one, and when we find Bin Laden, blast him right between the eyes. We're unbelievably lucky we have adults: Bush, Cheney, Rice, and Rumsfeld in charge. God does bless America, each and every day.

*chuckle!*

You shouldn't be writing short articles like this making fun of Dean and the other Democrats.

Instead, you should instead be writing longer articles like this making fun of Dean and the other Democrats.

Keep up the good work!

..that Dean was recruited to run for the democrat nomination by none other than Karl Rove himself.

..an Red Herring?...Is he, the GOP version of a Red Queen?
