Another Bullshit Alert

You gotta love Howie Dean. In a speech yesterday down at Vandy he continued his effort to win back "the solid south" for the Democratic Party. How you might ask?

According to Howie, "We [Liberals from New Hamshire] need to talk about values and not be afraid of them." Yet during his run for the Democratic nomination Howie famously lectured that "the South has to stop basing its vote on
race, God, guns and gays." Translation: Your values suck. You need to vote for Democrats cause you don't know any better.

This is the type of thinking that caused him to say,"I still want to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks." Sadly Howie still thinks of the South like Hollywood tends to portray it; as a bunch of dumb backward rednecks.

Notice to Howie: you want to win the South, don't talk down to us. I don't know what ivory tower you climbed down from, but as long as you talk about to Southerners like you would talk to a child, you won't win.

Complaining yesterday that a local commercial had called him "a northeastern liberal" (which is fairly accurate), "I've been called worse things than a liberal. The reason the Republicans call names is because they have nothing to say about balancing the budget, creating jobs or doing anything about health care or education." Of course this is coming from the guy who just called all Republicans "evil". But I guess being called "a northeastern liberal" is worse then "evil".

Another Notice to Howie: you want to win the South, don't be such a whiner.
