At Northwestern, Howard Dean Disputes Media View that 'Values' Swung Election

By Charles Geraci

Published: November 12, 2004 2:05 PM ET
EVANSTON, Ill. Former presidential candidate Howard Dean wants the media to stuff
its new conventional wisdom that "values" or "morals" drove the result of this month's
election.

Speaking Thursday night to 500 Northwestern University students, many of them
journalism majors, Dean noted there was little "statistical difference" between the
percentage of voters who deemed moral values the top issue (22 %) and those who
ranked as their top concern Iraq or the economy/jobs, according to exit poll data.

"How can you get to the conclusion morality was the most important issue in this
campaign?" Dean asked. "It's beyond me, but that was what the media was riding. They're
entitled to their opinion. It doesn't happen to be the opinion of thoughtful people who are
looking."
