Hope they keep him on right though the 2006 elections. He's doing SUCH a poor job of raising money for the DNC. Republican's ahead 2-1. I'm loving it.

CHICKEN LITTLE AT NBC: DEAN DUCKS APPEARANCE WITH REPUBLICAN
Sun Nov 13 2005 09:17:22 ET
Dem Chair Dean Ducks Last Second Joint MEET THE PRESS Appearance With GOP Chair Mehlman
The DRUDGE REPORT has learned from exclusive sources that Democrat Party Chair Howard Dean turned down Republican Party Chair Ken Mehlman's last minute offer to appear together on NBC's MEET THE PRESS this morning.
Moments before taping was to begin with host Tim Russert, Mehlman asked Dean outside the NBC studio's green room: "There's still time for us to go on together Governor." Dean declined with a shrug of his shoulders and an uncomfortable cackle and then proceeded to walk away into the green room.
DRUDGE has learned MEET THE PRESS producers have been working to get a head to head Dean/Mehlman appearance on the program since Dean was named chair back in February.
Dean and his handlers have repeatedly turned down the request.
[chicken...chicken]
The former Vermont governor only agreed to do this week's program if they appeared in back-to-back interviews.
[chicken...chicken]
Mehlman brought up Dean's unwillingness to appear alongside him during the show: "I was hoping that Chairman Dean would be on sitting next to me this morning. Maybe we can do that on a future program. Look, he's somebody I've enjoyed getting to know. We meet in a lot of green rooms…."
Tim Russert: "We invited him -- do you have a question for him?"
Former Dem Party Chair Terry McAuliffe participated in regular head-to-head appearances with his Republican counterparts during his tenure from '01 to '05.
McAuliffe went head-to-head with Republican chairmen at least five times on MEET THE PRESS alone, going up against past GOP chairs Ed Gillespie (twice), Marc Racicot (twice) and Jim Gilmore (once).
This weekend on ABC's THIS WEEK the Democrat heads of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), Sen. Chuck Schumer, and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), Rep. Rahm Emanuel, both appeared head-to-head with their Republican committee counterparts Sen. Elizabeth Dole and Rep. Tom Reynolds.

So....not only is he failing the dem party in not getting donations for their party....but he's too chicken to have a debate with those who might ask too tough of questions from him.
Oh yea....we have a LOT to be worried about from the dems....NOT!!!

Ups, well we did it again Linda.... I gave my liberal neighbors son a book for his birthday. He went crazy trying to find where to put the batteries.

No problem for me, bear.
We need to get the truth out one way or another....so duplication isn't the worst we could be doing. Remaining silent rather than pointing out the dem party's lack of a backbone/platform.

Maybe this is one of the reasons why? Maybe the Democrats should adopt the crooked way Repugs raise funds?:
College Republicans' Fundraising Criticized
Front Organizations Were Used in Direct-Mail Campaign That Collected Millions
By Thomas B. Edsall
Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, December 26, 2004; Page A05
The College Republican National Committee is under fire for using front organizations to collect millions of dollars in contributions, """
including money from elderly people with dementia.
During the 2004 campaign, the group sent out direct-mail solicitations under such letterheads as "Republican Headquarters 2004" and "Republican Election Committee."
One four-page letter asked prospects to send $1,000 together with an American flag pin for President Bush to wear to "Republican Headquarters" to ensure that Bush knows "there are millions who are giving him the shield of God to protect him in the difficult days ahead."
In small print at the bottom of one page, the letter notes: "A project of and paid for by College Republican National Committee."
Many donors complained that they thought the money was going directly to the Republican Party, and not to the college group, which is no longer affiliated with the GOP. The controversy over the letters has produced angry responses from leaders of state College Republican chapters, including those in Washington state, North Carolina and New York.
The University of Washington College Republicans approved a resolution calling on Eric Hoplin, chairman of the national committee, "to take full responsibility for his actions," acknowledge that those actions have substantially harmed the College Republicans grass-roots organization and "promptly resign."
Dan Centinello, New York College Republicans chairman, complained that the national leaders have not taken prompt and decisive action to correct the situation. "I don't want to see hard work by all of us be tarnished by a fundraising scandal," he said.
Internal disputes over fundraising tactics have been brewing among College Republican groups for at least three years, but they surfaced in late October, after the publication of damaging news reports in the Seattle Times and the Durham Herald-Sun. ""

As you can tell by who she supports and the following quote, linduh's standards are quite low indeed
""And even though to you he did all those things....he was still re-elected over your guy. tsk tsk tsk ""
Just like Big Ed said..."to Republicans winning is everything"...
Decency, integrity, honesty, patriotism, high moral ethics will get cast aside once they win because the winning is everything....proved to be true...
