A Duck’s B-Day

Filed under Howard the Duck
Comments Off

Yesterday was Donald Duck’s birthday. Even though Donald isn’t smart enough to wear pants in public he has to have more sense than his fowl friend running the DNC, Howard “the Duck” Dean, M.D. The way some Democrats are running away from the famous screamer they’d prefer the Disney character too.

Donors Ditch DNC’s Dean

Howard Dean, M.D. has been a harm to DNC fundraising. As Robert Novak reports:
Democratic National Committee (DNC) fund raising under the chairmanship of Howard Dean shows a disappointing $16.7 million raised in the first quarter of 2005, compared with $34 million reported by the Republicans.
That tends to confirm dire predictions by old-line Democratic […]

Call Him Moneybags

Howard Dean, M.D. as DNC chairman gave the angry Left it’s strong voice in American politics. Now, Dr. Dean’s fundraising prowess is giving them the means to scream at all Americans.
The Associated Press notes that the DNC raised at least $3.4 million in his first three weeks. And Howard Dean says that is more […]

A Hunting We Will Go

Dr. Dean’s return to the political limelight means the Duck Hunt has risen from the grave. If you’re a new TAM reader the Duck Hunt* is my periodic look at what the blogopshere is saying about Howard Dean, M.D. Early last year while Dean, M.D. was running for President I linked to people’s views about […]

D-Day

Dr. Howard Dean is the new DNC chairman based solely on a voice vote. When all your opponents drop out that’s what happens. This is a far cry–I mean scream–from last year’s Democratic primaries. Instead of burning millions of dollars only to become the losing butt of jokers across the country, Dean, M.D. jumped to […]

Frost Leaves Dean Clear Path

Martin Frost dropped out of the running for DNC Chairman. The former Congressman was the one I thought would be the real challenge to Howard Dean, M.D. Frost couldn’t get the support of the labor unions, something he needed to combat Dr. Dean’s endorsements from state party leaders.

Truth in Advertising

Soon-to-be DNC Chairman Howard Dean, M.D. inspired John Hawkins to make an ad for the Dems. I don’t think this is what Oliver Willis had in mind.

Dean’s Going to Win

Filed under Howard the Duck
Comments Off

Howard Dean, M.D. is in a strong position to become the next DNC Chairman. It is much stronger than he ever was as a Presidential candidate when glowing media coverage and a powerful internet presence resulted in few wins in Democratic primaries and caucuses. Unlike last year, endorsements for Dean are also votes for the […]

Dean’s in the Lead

The AP finally realizes Howard Dean, M.D. is the front-runner for the DNC Chairmanship. That’s not a surprise since Dr. Dean is the only candidate running like he’s after the Presidency. He had a rally in St. Louis last weekend, and now he’s planning house parties. If they read TAM they’d have known this sooner.
But […]

Dean’s a Rock Star

If grassroots Democrats could vote Howard Dean, M.D. would be a shoo-in for DNC Chairman. Last Friday in St. Louis, Dr. Dean had 400 come out for a rally. This is a sign the rank-and-file Democrats are not sobering up after their Presidential defeat.

Dean Wins Florida

Filed under Howard the Duck

Howard Dean, M.D. did something AlGore couldn’t do: win Florida.
The Florida delegation to the Democratic National Committee has voted unanimously to endorse Howard Dean to be the party’s next chairman, bucking an effort to orchestrate an endorsement of one candidate by all 50 state party leaders at the same time later this month.
The decision, announced […]

Guilt by Association

Efficency is good. In this case I can post about Howard Dean, M.D. running for DNC chairman and the continuing discussion about Kos’ payments from him during the last Presidential campaign. Patrick Hynes tries a little guilt by association by wondering aloud if Dr. Dean endorsed some of Kos’ more colorful posts. Hynes concludes,
Lest this […]

Not Shocked

Filed under Howard the Duck
Comments Off

Howard Dean, M.D. wants to be the next DNC Chairman. I think he’d be a detrement to his party and would weaken the GOP. Emmett Tyrell has a different take:
He is no radical. Whereas earlier champions of the left in the Democratic Party were left-wing ideologues — for instance, Sen. George McGovern — Dean is […]

Dean Down South

Howard Dean, M.D. and other contenders for the DNC chairmanship were down in Atlanta this weekend to court support. Dr. Dean’s strategy was to just show up. That’s a lot better than talking about the confederate flag.

Iraq War Supporter Backs Dean

Pennsylvania Congressman, Vietnam war veteran, and Iraq War supporter John Murtha is lobbying his collegues to support Howard Dean, M.D. for DNC Chairman. In a race that appears to be among Dean, M.D., former Rep. Martin Frost, and former Rep. Tim Roemer Murtha’s support may force Democratic Congressmen to, in the words of an unnamed […]
