Howard Dean to head Democratic party
Howard Dean will be the top dog in the Democratic Party, what a change from his flameout of the presidential race after his unravelling at the Iowa caucuses. Dean may be a good choice for the Dems, considering he is somewhat outspoken, a good fundraiser, and perhaps more in tune with the younger generation. Time will tell, but he has his work cut out for him.
However, the next election will probably not happen in the middle of a war either, so that will also be a factor.
Let me know what you think of the choice and read the story here:

I think Dean is a good choice. Sean Hannity seems to think he will lead the Democrats to ruin, but Dean's record as governor of Vermont is actually fairly moderate. He will do just fine on the talking head shows.
I think the Democrats are starting to realize that being seen as stridently liberal on many issues is hurting them everywhere outside the Northeast and Pacific Coast. The party itself does not need to change its platform, but they could welcome pro-life people the way Republicans are happy to have pro-choice Ahnold and Rudy Guliani.
