More and part of the transcript here.

We should thank our Democrats who speak out like this like we want them to do.

Thanks, Howard Dean.

Good job.

Here is more from the interview at Political Carnival.

http://thepoliticalcarnival.blogspot.com/2008/09/tom-brokaw-interviews-howard-dean.html

"Dean: Politicians are politicians. Tell me ONE THING any of them said that was positive, that would make their lives better.

Brokaw: Here's a new Democratic (DNC) ad.. shows it. It's about the economy, linking Bush and McCain.

Dean: It's true, these guys pose as reformers. I couldn't believe Mitt Romney's speech blaming liberals, when we had a Republican government for years. This is propaganda, nonsense. When they get the power, they don't do anything for ordinary Americans.

Brokaw: Palin energized her base. Did she energize the Democratic base too?

Dean: The donations have been flowing in. But the real problem for them is, Republican women will now vote for Democrats. They don't appreciate this kind of politics... no reaching across the aisle. Another 4 years of Bush/Cheney."

31. Brokaw & Dean
Brokaw just can't help being the life long Republican that he is. Dean did a terrific job of throwing all the Republican Talking points back at Brokaw. Finally after all these years Brokaw is showing his spin and propaganda that is twisted Republican and trying not to be so obvious. Brokaw is morally and intellectually dishonest.

18. LOL! He is annoying, isn't he?
Dean wasn't playing his game, and he hated that.

22. I wonder if Brokaw has managed to pull his face out of McCain's ass yet.
Geez, he acted like Palin was reciting 100% fact.

Ole Tom's being a good little soldier for the RW smear machine.

10. Dean handled that very well.
Brokaw keep trying to sell the republican's talking points. To every response by Dean, Brokaw came back with "But..."

14. "This is ridiculous. This is propaganda. This is nonsense." I LOVE HOWARD DEAN!!
Tell it like it is, Howard.

You can tell Tom is not at all happy that Dr. Dean will not go along with Tom's reich-wing ideological rationalizations.

Fuck Tom Brockaw. He's a shill.

27. Yes, his mind does work like that.
The delegates at the convention were stunned that the names of candidates from all over the country were readily known by him...their odds, etc.

28. I just did another blog search. No Dem blog I can find has posted this.
This was an excellent interview....I have not seen it acknowledged at other lefty blogs.

I find that disturbing, as that is the kind of thing blogs should do.
