Slow night guys?

[JohnKleeb]

Sorry just kinda lonely here and frustrated at the black and white thinking I see.

[GRLMGC]

1. I know

My internet is kinda on the fritz and only works when it wants to so I'll try to post as much as I can until I go to bed.

[JohnKleeb]

2. Ive been frustrated at the black and white thoughts of many

If you oppose Dean, you must be DLC, wtf, some oppose Dean because they think they're better people for that job.

[GRLMGC]

3. Yeah well, ideologues are like that

I'll accept Dean. In fact, I think he'd make a good head of the DNC. That doesn't mean someone else can't do a good job either. Unless their name is Roemer, but that's beside the point.

[JohnKleeb]

4. yes I dont like what I hear about Roemer

Yeah I dont have a pick, I am sure Dean would be ok though I do worry he could alienate the south, he really alienated me in the primaries when he sterotyped southerners.

[GRLMGC]

5. That could be problematic

I'm just a little worried that the party is moving to the right. I'm not (obviously) a left wingnut but I'd sooner not see my party become more like the Republican party.

[JohnKleeb]

6. I don't see Roemer getting it

He doesnt have any really special skills. I could deal with Rosenberg.

[GRLMGC]

7. Yes

I went to read some of that Chris Heinz thread. Wow, people are super, super ignorant. It would be funny if it wasn't so maddening.

[JohnKleeb]

8. Yes madness and humor go together

[angrydemocrat]

9. Where Is WildEyedLiberal Tonight

It's not like her not to already be here.

[JohnKleeb]

10. isnt she at work?

[angrydemocrat]

13. Not Sure If She Is Working Or Not

Might Be.

[JohnKleeb]

14. I think so, I dunno

Or she could gasp actually be sleeping :). She'll probably come on after I do my second nap though, Ive slept for a bit today.

[angrydemocrat]

15. NO WAY!

Wild sleeping? You are dreaming now Kleeb.

[JohnKleeb]

16. hah

ok, I dunno, but I'd expect her to show up after I get to sleep.

11. Dean is a powerful force on DU

if he loses this race perhaps he can be installed as the ruler of DU.

I wouldn't mind Dean being the DNC chair one bit, the man can craft some very good language about being a Democrat and is highly sucessful at fundraising and grassroots energizing. But as you allude to in this thread Dean has made some whopper statements that will haunt him and worry me if the party could handle more with him the constant spotlight.

Rosenberg seems like a smart choice, or alternative to Dean. I'm intrested in both of them

Roemer doesn't seem like he could handle the big and chaotic tent this party is. His positions on many issues are out of the Democratic mainstream too often, I doubt he will secure the position. If he does I'm not expecting Democrats to pledge their allegence to Republicans and promptly disband. Some people are still depressed and hurt from this nasty election.

[JohnKleeb]

12. Yes thats a good sumup honest

Roemer I dont think will be it, he doesnt seem to have the right stuff. Dean while he does put his foot in his mouth does have a good fundrasing capability and is outspoken.

[paulk]

17. I just took a peek at the Chris Heinz thread

I've got so many people on ignore that I was only getting one side of the nastier stuff!

Couldn't even follow a lot of it.
