I consider Howard Dean as a typical northeastern Liberal Elite who is completely unaware that his comments about the south would be considered an insult. I have met people like him and they believe they are superior. I believe the only reason why he apologized for his remarks is because his handlers told him to do so.
Howard Dean is so far out of touch from what makes this country tick it's pathetic. I will bet the rent that he will not win a single State in the South. In fact, If he is the Nominee, I doubt he will win a single State next November.
Howard Dean does not have what it takes to lead this country and his flip flopping on the issues will not fool the American people. We live in serious times that call for serious leadership. And this is something Howard Dean doesn't possess
I just had this thought after reading your post. Perhaps Dean is sticking his foot in his mouth intentionally. However, he still wins the dims nomination. then they discover that he will not win so Hillary jumps in to save the day. Can she run if even if she doesn't win or even run in the primary? Just a thought, a scary thought.
