It did not sound crazed like what they played in the media. That media meme/lie made me so angry. But I am glad he has a good sense of humor about it now. That line was hilarious!

I thought that anyone who considered it odd had never seen Wellstone when he was on fire and hopping all over the stage -- that was a beautiful sight that I still miss.

The media would hate to have the media blame the media.

And, moreso, there is a concerted effort to curb/stop Dean. Especially in the absence of DWS.
