He's Ohio's Howard Dean -- minus the "Yeaaaghh!"
The Soul Of The New Machine - our very own AWD! Just think, we can all say we knew him when.

When Howard Dean screamed himself out of the presidential race, his supporters took solace in their mantra that it wasn't about the man, but the movement.

snip

Enter Jeff Seemann, who's quixotic run against Ralph Regula, the long-term incumbent Republican Congressman in Ohio's 16th district, has transformed him into a national poster boy for the new political machine.

But his spirit lives on.

AWD stands for Angry White Democrat.

4. Jeff called me last week to thank me for my contribution.
I like candidates that'll call you personally. After speaking with him, I'd agree with the article. He's the real deal.

8. He called me, too. Great talk.
What a great guy! We decided that Deaniacs are already on a roll in taking back our country. He is so intelligent, and it was inspiring to talk to him.

5. Jeff is a hero and this aticle shows just how much he is doing in the REAL
...WORLD to DEFEAT the PUKES, effect REAL change, and help the Democratic party find it's true soul again.

Whatever happend to him here--and I don't recall the exact story--we should count ourselves as fortunate for any association we have had with him.

9. Go Jeffy Go Jeffy
BTW, he is still taking contributions and his doing well in Ohio will benenfit Kerry.
The more his people can get their message out, the more people will also pull the big D lever for Kerry.

11. I will never forget Jeff and the bullhorn, in the rain, protesting Bush.
He was so enthusiastic. Didn't he make the news for that?

12. I think it was when he got hauled out of a stadium
for turning his back on W that he made the news.
