DNC Chairman Howard Dean Statement On the Retirement of Senator Jim Jeffords Washington, DC – Democratic National Committee Chairman, Governor Howard Dean, issued the following statement regarding the retirement of Vermont Senator Jim Jeffords:
"People all across America owe my good friend Jim Jeffords a debt of gratitude for dedicating his life to public service. An extraordinary man of great integrity, Jim's career exemplifies the very best in public life. From defending the environment and education, to his staunch support for the arts, to advocating for Americans with disabilities, Jim has distinguished himself as a courageous public servant.
"For more than 30 years, Jim has fought to do the right thing, standing against extremism. His work ethic, patriotism and commitment to serving the people of Vermont have made him a model to all of us who know him and have had the honor to work with him."
#20... I was going to ask the same thing...
I see your Lieberman for Mcain and raise you one Zell Miller for Lincoln Chaffee
I'll see your Lieberman for Mcain and raise you one Zell Miller for Lincoln Chaffee
Senator Lieberman, though he has a strike against him for joining albore in 2000, is a moderate democrat ... and that is a species Dean cannot stomach. Please, encourage Howard the Duck to continue his maniacal slurs against moderate democrats because that's what makes up the vast majority of dem voters. Imagine the 2006 vote and a 70 count of Pubbies in the Senate. Imagine the 2008 run of hatellary with Dean spreading his venom far and wide. Please, lat Dean have all the rope he wants.
I am so glad Howard Dean is head of the DNC. Perfect choice.
