26. The Scream
Edited on Sat Aug-13-05 10:35 PM by Capn Sunshine
was recorded through a directional mike, used to filter out crowd noise. It was further cleaned , then recorded on thousands of cassettes and MP3s, and sent out that night, so that it was in the in box of every morning radio show and TV network in the country.

All in all, it was played just on network TV news over 600 times between Iowa and New Hampshire.

Out of context hardly describes what Gov Dean was doing: yelling to be heard over 3500 people packing a room to applaud their hero.

Who was responsible?

Certainly not the Dean campaign. Beyond that, one simply has to ask
"who benefits?"

Now, I've been a member of the DLC since it's inception, I am a Clinton/Gore alumni, and I worked for Howard Dean since 2002.

Even Howard will tell you, the DLC is an interest group and their day has come and gone.

Yet, you still see a little kick in them, they seem bound and determined to preserve the status quo as it currently exists in DC today. Which is all about corporate influence and the collection of money for campiagns via this influence. As someone who performed this task for the DLC, I can tell you, that is what they are about.

Do they want to eat your children? Well, they want to help those that do, if you believe that the War Machine is a profit driven actual thing that rears its ugly head every generation or so.

That a few of their mostly harmless remnants still bother to post on DU is interesting though.

Too bad that the Third Way isn't more what they are about. They have morphed into a bunch of pimps and panderers for sale to the highest bidder.
