BLITZER: I know you have to vote, but I'll ask you one quick political question Congresswoman, before I let you go, on Howard Dean. Listen to what he said last night, the chairman of the Democratic Party.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

DEAN: The Republicans are not very friendly to different kinds of people. They're pretty monolithic party. They pretty much, all behave the same and they all look the same. And they all -- you know, it's pretty much a white Christian party.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

BLITZER: Do you agree with him? Is he a help or a hindrance to the Democrats?

HARMAN: Well, let me just say, that, as one Democrat, I think security is being addressed by many in our party, security issues. The intelligence bill comes up tomorrow. A lot of the things that we've been able to do in the last several years were Democratic ideas, including the structure for this new director of national intelligence. So, you know, I think that Democrats are being more successful in Congress and I'm really going to be proud of the role I will play tomorrow as ranking Democrat on the Intelligence Committee when this bill passes.

BLITZER: But, what about Howard -- what about Howard Dean?

HARMAN: I have -- he was elected the chairman of the Democratic party. I didn't hear see or hear those comments, but I am just hopeful that we can forge a really successful path for Democrats on security issues. I think we need a higher profile there, and I'm very excited about the opportunity.

BLITZER: All right, Jane Harman, you can go ahead and vote now.

HARMAN: Thanks.

BLITZER: Thanks very much for spending a few moments with us here on CNN.

HARMAN: Thank you, Wolf.

One of the biggest dodges in history. Amazing.

Off topic: I'm reading Mona Charen's book Do-Gooders. It is a MUST read.

For instance, when Democrats say that the Willie Horton commercial was race baiting by Reublicans, it is actually then Senator Gore who first raised the issue in his race against Dukakis in the Democrat primaries. LOL

[Dad yer funny]

Harman must have been sleeping under a rock , Dean's comments are "buzzstuff"

[johnny7]

That was like Bill Richardson's answer to basically the same question... only longer and more convoluted.

Now if you'll excuse me... I have to get back to my 'dishonest', 'Christian', 'evil' work.

HARMAN: Who is Howard Dean?

[Once-Ler]

I didn't hear see or hear those comments

That is hilarious. Blitzer played the comments seconds earlier for Harman. Harmen should have just said "I'm sorry I didn't hear your question...Sorry I missed the question again...Still not listening, and now I have to go vote. Bye."
