Oh how I wish Howard Dean were the party chair right now

It is looking like the Repugs are trying to hand us the greatest opportunity in decades to not only win the presidency but turn the senate and maybe even the House.

And instead of flogging Repugs at every turn and showing the world which party actually stands for people, DWS is trying to hose CFPB. Will we piss this opportunity away by not being true to our roots?

Howard Dean we miss you.

but he's no longer that Howard Dean, he's this new centrist Howard Dean.
