24. Dean's Position On Saddam Was No Different Than The Other Democrats
and he only gradually evolved.

The Media made Dean the anti-war candidate and some on the left were so desperate for an "anti-war" candidate they swallowed it... despite Dean's actual words, policies etc.

And since being percieved as anti-war gave Dean traction... he went with it.

This was proven time and again during the primaries... I am not going to rehash it once more. Dean's OWN WORDS prove the point. He wasn't "Anti-War" until it was politically expedient for him to be.

Most Democrats who are against Dean as Chair are most certainly NOT PNAC'ers unless you have some actual proof that they agree the United States should take over the world by force.

It seems more realistic that some DNC members might just be FOR someone other than Dean.

In the end, there is very little difference between Howard Dean and every other Democrat.

Dean's record as Governor and his performance during the Primaries illustrates this quite well.
