We knew it was coming, but...

It still made me tear up. Howard Dean dropped out of the race. What happened? It wasn’t a silly scream that he let out one night in frustration and excitement. I think it was a coordinated effort by the “Old Guard” Democrats to discredit him. Well, congratulations, you won. I still think Howard Dean changed things for the better and forced the candidates to be more liberal than they might have been without him, but it wasn’t his year. I’m sure Kerry will be just fine, but he certainly doesn’t stir a “fire in my belly”. Let’s hope he can do what needs to be done without selling out, and most importantly, BEAT BUSH! I see a Kerry/Edwards ticket that I think could do some damage. So I can officially change my support, sigh. Out with DEAN in with GO KERRY!
