OK. There should be enough info here to start a new rumor. I've done my good deed for the day.

[babylonsister]

1. Poor Howard...

[Cha]

9. That's my kind of territory!

B-)

[AtomicKitten]

11. How will he cope what with all that sunshine and natural beauty?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

2. He could get a job in television.

[Pirate Smile]

14. That is actually exactly what I was thinking of - or that he might be a go-to surrogate on

all the shows pushing the Health Care Bill. He is great at that stuff - especially battling with Republicans which we know is coming.

[Political Tiger]

3. Obama hates Howard Dean

at least that's what I hear.....
:sarcasm:

[firedupdem]

4. Did he look like he'd been crying when he boarded the plane? I'm so worried about him. n/t

[Kahuna]

12. Me too. Between his tears yesterday, he said that he was looking

forward to getting back in the private sector and making money. Poor fellow. :cry:

[Cha]

17. I'm so excited for Dean..whatever

he does it's going to be awesome!

[Boomerang Diddle]

5. Some fun N sun!

He deserves it!

[Uzybone]

6. Rahm looked "cold" when Obama said Deans' name

so that means Obama hates Dean. or so the Dr Frists of DU say.

[countingbluecars]

7. Makes sense to get in a good final trip

on the DNC dime before his chairmanship is up. Good for him.

[K Gardner]

8. Completely bamboozled by that mean ole Obama. Poor Howard.

:sarcasm:

[Cha]

10. Dean has the same birthday as my niece

too..I've told her what a great honor that is:)

[xxqqqzme]

15. I noticed Howard shares a birthdate

w/ john boner - dear lord.

[Cha]

16. That's funny.. my

daughter shares a birthday with bush sr, June 12th.

Me, I got Fidel Castro.

[BeyondGeography]

13. Wouldn't he rather be doing a press event in Warshington?
