Dean as VP II

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

Ok, so there was a comment in the previous entry about the scream killing Dean off regardless for what ever he might be considered for (I'm sure it would be brought up as an excuse for Chief Senate Floor Duster if there was one that was appointed).

Over at Daily Kos in a comment, there was an excellent idea which I have posted below...

Hi, I'm Howard Dean. You may remember me as a mild-mannered doctor and former governor of Vermont.

[footage of one of the doctored/well-mixed Deanscreams from the internet]

Yes, we all have a lot to scream about these days, don't we?

[appropriate images onscreen with each of the bullets below]

+ with our sons and daughters dying in a war we didn't have to fight;
+ with tax breaks and wrist slaps for corporate fatcats and scofflaws;
+ with our executive branch thinking that they can ignore the constitution and international law;

I'm Howard Dean, and I approved this message because I'd say the time for remaining silent has long since passed. It's time for your voice to be heard again. Speak up, and elect Kerry/Dean in 2004.

I was curious why Zogby or Fox News would do a poll all of a sudden at the same time about Dean as a VP choice. Especially a Zogby poll of over 7,000 people with state by state break downs. I would suspect it's more than just the chance that Zogby was bored and had nothing better to do.

Where there's smoke...

Zogby Interactive Polls are worthless. They are self-selective; i.e., anyone can vote in the poll. It's not a scientifically-selected sample, so bias can creep into the result due to a disproportionate number of supporters of a position that choose to contribute to the poll.

Karl-Thomas,

Everyone loves a dreamer. :)
Just be sure you can distinguish the dreams from the nightmares.

BTW, best of luck at the convention!
