The DNC needs a leader who has a spine. Though I supported Wes Clark in the primaries, I admire Howard Dean for his willingness to be the first to stand up and oppose the Bush administration. We need his fight! We need his appeal to young voters! Yes, we need Dean. No more "Democratic politics as usual." It's time for a real change.
We need someone with intelligence and the courage to speak up and that person is Howard Dean. Even the talking heads on conservative TV treat him with respect tinged with fear because they know he won't take any of their crap.
It is ONLY with the leadership of someone with the honesty, the separation from the lobbyists and
$ interests that dominate the DNC, and his down to earth policies that this party will ultimately thrive and serve the broad mandate that has historically supported and made the party the party of the people.
The DNC needs to focus on what we stand for, while many of us know we have yet to put out a message that independents can grab ahold of, we need a new approach.
We need a party leader who is more focused on shaping the message and promoting policies that help all Americans, rather than selling out to special interests in pursuit of raising funds. The prescription for our ailing party is Dr. Howard Dean.
During the primaries, Howard Dean was the only candidate who had a reasonable, common sense, time-proved stands on ALL issues. He is the only prominent Democrat who demonstrated a clear vision on how to unute the country.
Howard's articulate delineation of the quality of life issues can overcome the bulldozer rhetoric the Republicans use to scare and intimidate Americans. Go, Howard.
Howard Dean is our Barry Goldwater--a voice of one crying in the wilderness. He didn't have what it took to be president, but the man is principled, unafraid to say what he thinks and frankly, in all his frankness a great motivator of the people. And his drive is what will lead us back on top.
Republican Lite doesn't cut it. Dean would make a great chairman, but I hope he'll engage some people with first-hand knowledge of the South and Midwest.
As we've seen in the last two elections, the Democratic Party needs to have a fresh, honest voice to advocate for fiscally responsible and socially progressive policies. Howard Dean is the right man for the job. He and the Deaniacs did the responible thing by standing behind John Kerry in this election. Now it's our turn--the voice of the true progressives needs to be heard.
Dear Sirs,
The DNC power elite have presided over the greatest decline of the greatest political party in the world. They conspired to eliminate change Howard Dean and his message of change from the primarys. And in a sure sign of inevitable karma, reaped the fruits of the sour seeds they sowed on November 2nd.
It is high time that they be removed much in the same way that a poorly performing CEO is removed by a swift acting Board.

Howard, We need your honesty, your integrity, your energy, and your spirit. Your dedication to the American people, and your realization that good ideas can come from anyone, on either side of the aisle, is exactly the type of statesmanship this party desperately needs.
Dr. Dean invigorated the base of our party in a way that no Democrat has since the early campaigns of Bill Clinton.
As Chairman of DNC, Dr. Dean will be in a position to give greater voice to the party base, and encourage his large army of supporters to not only vote for Democrats themselves, but to encourage others to vote Democratic.
