WASHINGTON — Howard Dean is no longer screaming — he's scheming. The failed presidential candidate whose howling adieu to the Iowa caucuses helped seal his fate as a presidential candidate is plotting to overhaul the Democratic Party.
Borrowing ideas from President Bush's re-election campaign, Madison Avenue and his own Internet-driven White House bid, the Democratic National Committee chairman hopes to drag the party into the 21st century.
"What I'm trying to do is impose a system and run this place like a business," Dean said during an expansive interview in his office overlooking the Capitol.
That vision would be welcome news to party strategists who have complained that the DNC and its chairman of nine months lag behind Republicans in the political arts of messaging, targeting and organizing.
Some Democrats look back at Dean's rise-and-fall presidential campaign and wonder whether he has the management skills to carry out his plans or the ability to raise the money needed to pay for them.

Just between us here, they need to do something to draw moderates to their party, but the barking moonbat wing seems to be the one they listen to.
Just between me and Howie, I say, don't change a thing, snookums, you're doing great!
I thought he hated us.
The real secret of Dean's success. Wasn't broad support, it was those biasing internet polls wanting DEAN DEAN DEAN as the candidate:
"Building a 50-state grass-roots organization, using the same Internet and community-building tools that took Dean's presidential bid from obscurity to the front of the pack before Iowa."
They don't see any moral judgements in abortion or homosexuality. This is part of the problem.
Call abortion what it is, murder, and defend the position that the child would not live a "quality" life whether it is because the parents don't get along, the family is poor, single teen mother, wrong sex of child, or birth defects. "Every child a WANTED child." So the rhetoric goes.
There have been 45 million children killed. Someone needs to defend the policy.
Why doesn't Bill Gates just write a check out of his bank account if he truly believes in the economic "tax the rich" policies of Democrats.
"'What I'm trying to do is impose a system and run this place like a business,' Dean said during an expansive interview in his office overlooking the Capitol."
Yeah. Enron.
Global Crossing is better.
Remember Hazel O'Leary of Clinton's DOE who had security clearance badges changed so that the employees would "feel" better?
Coward's bloated ego and level of insanity keeps him thinking he can conquer the world. LMAO. If only the rats became GOPers....is that what he plans next? He hates us but admires our election-winning strategy.
Coward..big yawn. You're not going anywhere...even you don't think you can win in 06 and 08...
LOL.
"What I'm trying to do is impose a system and run this place like a business,"
BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA-- this coming from a rabid marxist!!!!!!!
I thought they hated business and capitalism?
As rush calls him, Nikita Dean....
Bottomline: Dean's idea is not unique - not fresh. He's copying from the Republican playbook.
