Howard must be kidding me right. Howard is the ultimate frat boy rich kid.

Here's what Howard does not know:

I used to wash dishes and flip hash for a living. After that, I worked 10 hours a day pushing wheel barrels of concrete up planks for difficult pours. My pay -- $6.50 an hour. That was 15 years ago.

Now -- I charge $405 an hour for my time.

It was the ride in between that made me a Republican. It was the struggle, the getting my education at night, the 3 jobs while going to school at night. It was the perseverance, self-reliance, and risk I took on myself -- including the massive debt I compiled to attend my various schools. It was that challenge that made me understand the power of determination, self-reliance, and personal responsibility.

That's why I am a Republican.

The Reason, unfortunately, that the Howard Dean's of the world are Democrats, is because it is they who have never worked a day in their life.

The Democrat party is a collection of several groups. Pro-abortion and pro-gay groups. But at its core, it is now the party of the non-working man. It is the party of the super guilty and super rich, who have never worked. It is the party of the elite who believe some can never achieve. And it is the party of the dependent, those who don't try or are afraid to achieve, and instead keep themselves warm with government handouts and hot rhetoric of class warfare -- served so easily by the Howard Deans of the world.
