Howard Dean

There is hope for the Democratic Party here in the United States--Howard Dean. Maybe he's not the ideal candidate, but the changes he's installed as the DNC chairman are morphing the Democratic Party into a closer knit and a much more involved party than ever before. There is much potential here. If you haven't already, I strongly recommend reading the NYTimes Magazine article on his recent changes within the party. Some might hint that his changes are doing more to destroy the party from within than they are to rebuild it---but it may be that this is the only way to re-make and re-energize a dying Democratic Party.
