Subject: RE: BS: Kerry takes Iowa
Well, I don't care what you all say. I'm keeping the Dean sticker on the back of my Toyota and will do so unless some other Dem. gets the nod and then, and only then, will I put the new guy's over it.

Dean continues to get a bad rap. He scares the press and they, in turn, scare off a lot of folks. They plant this idea that Dean is not electable and lots of folks who know nothing about Dean go "owwwweee, I don't want someone who can't beat Bush". Well, I think Dean can beat Bush if he gets the nod. People will get to know him beyond what the media wants to give them. He can raise money. He has shown he can put together organizations.

Now, I'm not saying that the media won't get it's way and perhaps they will derail Dean by zeroing in on his every mis-step. If they did that to any other candidate they might derail them, too. The media doesn't want to hear what Dean has to say and more imporatantly, the media doesn't want you folks to hear it either.

The media has a big deal with the neo-cons and, might of fact, they've gotten their FCC ownership legislation wrapped into the Omnibus spending bill, which if the Dems go too far in trying to stop will face the same negative repurcusions that the Repubs got when they wouldn'fund the government back in Slick Willie's days.

This Green still fir Dean...
