The Buzz: Trouble in Deanland

Posted on Tue, Jan. 31, 2006
Roll Call reports that Democratic leaders are bristling at arty Chairman Howard Dean’s management. They’re especially upset because he has spent nearly all of the Democratic National Committee’s cash and has little left to support efforts to gain seats this cycle.
Several sources said congressional leaders and especially Rep. Rahm Emanuel, head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, were furious when they learned the DNC has just $5.5 million in the bank versus the Republican National Committee’s $34 million. A Democratic source about Dean: “People are bringing him to Jesus. It’s being expressed to him. He knows it.”
Probably a misstatement of the cliché "come to Jesus meeting", the equivalent of a "trip to the woodshed" or "attitude adjustment". In other words, Dean has "screwed the pooch" once too often for some members of Congress.
My theory is that they did an Enron -- claimed more than they received. Maybe they reported pledges as receipts!
Impossible! democRATs don't believe in Jesus.
