The guest of honor couldn't be there in person, so Barbara Hopkins created a life-size cardboard figure of Democratic presidential hopeful Howard Dean to greet those attending a fund-raiser at her Sacramento home Tuesday night. Douglas Brown picked up Dean bumper stickers during a holiday visit to Iowa to give to contributors at his east Sacramento event, while Judith Painter wrote a joke about President Bush's foreign policy to break the ice at her Land Park fund-raiser.

"This is a movement ... that is already reinvigorating democracy itself and the Democratic Party," former Vice President Al Gore said in introducing Dean during the conference call Tuesday night.

Yep, Dean is going to reinvigorate them just like McGovern did.

Somehow a cardboard cutout introducing another cardboard cutout is appropriate.

Democrats are easily manipulated by good talkers- like Rats to a Pied Piper.

Howard Dean is leading astray the rank-and-file Democrat, whose emotions can be exploited by a skillful demagogue. It's amusing to watch the impending train wreck.
