The Lowdown on Dean

Alright, I'll probably be roasted for this, but I voted for Bush. Before you all start flicking your bics, I'm disappointed. Yesterday's Doonesbury rang true with me. Mike Doonesbury is talking to his daughter and explains "I thought I was voting for a 'Compassionate Conservative' and we ended up with this right-wing radical. As a moderate, I can't go with him again. I'm thinking I may have to go with Joe Lieberman." His daughter says," Joe Lieberman, the Democrat?" To which Mike replies, "I prefer to think of him as an emergency Republican." Of course, I differ with Mike Doonesbury. I think my emergency Republican might be Howard Dean. I was looking around for a balanced perspective on Dean and found this:

Dean has appropriated the late Paul Wellstone�s line that he represents "the real Democratic Party." That�s arguable. The Democratic candidate closest to Paul Wellstone�s progressive politics is Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich, a founder and co-chair of the congressional progressive caucus. Kucinich has a long record of progressive politics...

Obviously, Dever's site has been offline to long. I need a healthy dose of some firebrand Republican rheotoric. All those young Republicans I've been having breakfast with aren't enough to keep me fired up. What's your opinion about this?
