Is Howard Dean the Crypto-Republican Candidate?
Advertisements [?]
This is going to make some people very angry. Too bad, DUers need to hear the truth.

Oh sure. Smart people know Howard Dean is no Liberal. They've been telling DU how they know that and how they're still for the ex-governor ex-doctor ex-stockbroker. Still, how many know his roots are squarely in the other camp?

Go ahead and get mad at the messenger. I don't care. It's what I've been saying about the guy for a while. What matters is that it's better that DUers get mad now than get pissed come Inauguration Day 2005.

Good reading from Hermes-Press:

Is Howard Dean the Crypto-Republican Candidate?

By Norman D. Livergood


Why is the Republican-owned media giving Howard Dean multi-million dollar media attention? That's the question no one's asking.

Dean made the covers of both Time and Newsweek, was interviewed by Larry King, was the subject of a US News Special, and receives continuing major coverage on all the "news" channels: MSNBC, CNN, and Fox.

Even Dean's campaign manager, Joe Trippi, appeared on CNBC's Capital Report, was interviewed on Fox News' Fox Facts, and was interviewed on CNN's Inside Politics--all in July, 2003. Why is Dean the only Democratic candidate to be given this kind of coverage?

The Republicans and their media hirelings would have us believe that they're giving Dean the spotlight because he's an Internet phenomenon, that he's the leading Democratic contender, and because he represents the "Democratic wing of the Democratic Party" (a line Dean stole from the late Senator Paul Wellstone). None of the media's claims are true.
