1. Awww, I missed it! Howard seems to be doing really well lately!
I think it's all the exposure and beatings that have him a tough hide that wasn't there in the primaries. He'll be back in national politics...you'll see.

5. He actually did a takeoff on his Iowa "scream" speech...
You know, "We're gonna go to Dallas, and Kansas City, and Minneapolis, and..." (naming football teams' home cities) He ended with, "... and then we're going to D.C.!!!", and winked! (closeup camera shot at that point) It was pretty funny.

10. Out of curiosity...
is it well known on these boards that the whole Howard Dean scream was a gross fabrication, because the media took out all the background noise and only took the sound out of his microphone? When it was live, he was shouting over a cheering crowd and the clip sounds normal, but take out the background noise and it seems like he's just going crazy.

I suspect that it's common knowledge here, but I hadn't found DU yet back then, so I only learned about the fabrication recently (when it was discussed on Air America).

11. Yup. I'm pretty sure it's common knowledge here...
I did not, however, read through every single one of the 800 or so threads discussing that event here at the time. ;-)

14. I read a lot of them, and then I screamed very loudly.
I think I will share that beer with you. The one you mentioned above. LOL I am sorry I missed that tonight.

15. LOL
:toast:

I wasn't a Dean person, but I was absolutely appalled at what the media (and some DUers :-( ) did to him. For me, that speech seemed totally cool -- like a coach giving a rousing pep talk to his team at halftime.

I'm gonna have to tune in for next Monday night's football game to see if they repeat Dean's intro -- it was far out!

Cheers!

2. OMG! So I wasn't hallucinating?!?
I was flipping through the channels and suddenly -- Howard Dean?!?!?! Howard Dean doing a football schtick?!?!?!

I really couldn't quite believe it. It's, like, sorta weird... But I suppose, sorta cool too... I dunno... Really unexpected -- like being dropped into an alternate universe...

I think I need a beer...

9. They filmed that right after he dropped out in Feb.
A whole bunch of Deaniacs were filmed in it as well. I was hoping to see it. Will it be every week, or was it just a one time thing.
Hilarious.

night football, and the Howard schtick is a great fit! Yea, I'm still a Deaniac!

Hey, this also could be a way to snag a couple of votes from those Pub white men they keep saying are for shrub!
