Howard Dean Shunned by Team Obama. WTF? Dean Paved the Way for the Obama Campaign and He Fought Off Rahm Emanuel and Chuck Schumer to Achieve a 50-state Strategy. Obama Wouldn't Have Won with a Schumer/Emanuel Blue State, Blue Congressional District Strategy. Show Dean Some Respect and Appreciation, President-elect Obama.

1. Yes. True.

[Thrill]

2. Just the type of Bullshit. The media loves to get going to wedge Dems.

Politico already having field day

3. OK, have it their way, he was shunned. Now what? n/t

on edit.

4. Buzzflash needs to write more concise headlines

their content is good, but they need help with editing.

5. It's a pattern. Dean was an old friend. Now he has new friends-lots of right wingers, more money.

Obama has kept old friend, Tim Kaine, Tim gets along well with right wingers, being as he is anti-choice, anti-glbt, and pro-war. Therefore he won't embarass the new Democratic Party which is trending Christian Right.

6. The guy who bagged my groceries thinks Dean is going to join Newt Gingrich on the 2012 Unity ticket

and I agree.

WTF?!? How about we wait for some facts?

Or I can pray on it and see what God tells me, if you prefer.

7. Obama gets to choose his cabinet based on his vision. Period

Y'all should stop trying to tell him who to pick for his own staff. It is Obama who has to work with the staff, not the members of DU (coming from a former Deaniac).

11. Is that really the issue? Dean's term was going to be up anyway.

8. Like they said after McClurkin: "We got what we needed to get out of it."

This is indicative of the expediency of the campaign; hopefully it won't be of the administration, but the signs are there...

In case you don't remember this exchange after the display of October 28, 2007:

"Yet after the tour when asked why the campaign would seemingly reject gay voters for far-right leaning blacks a campaign insider replied, 'We got what we needed to get out of it.'"

That pretty much says it all, doesn't it?

9. Obama needs to sexually pleasure Dean on the Whitehouse lawn.

13. Now that is funny

:kick:

10. Obama used his own strategy and won. Nobody knows what went on

between Obama and Dean. Who knows, maybe Dean was the one who dissed Obama. Just sayin.' :shrug:

12. Howard Dean clearly says ON VIDEO, posted here, exactly what he is doing and

exactly what he WANTS to do in the coming years. Why can't anyone just listen to HIM instead of making wild conjectures not based on any fact at all?

It is astounding.
