and Howard Dean is a good judge.

of opportunities to let red counties know exactly how Trump and the Republicans are screwing them in real time.

I never followed this DNC election process before. Does it always take this much putzing around?

Fresh and not stuck in the middle.

And he came across really well. It would be meteoric if he won this race.

I'm pulling for Ellison because he's my Congressman and he's tough and determined and a great organizer (though I'd hate to loose him as my Congressman). But I'd be fine with Perez. What little I know of that other guy I read on Wikipedia, and it seems like maybe he doesn't have enough much national experience. He might be OK, though.

for calling Ellison something similar...

though at least Mayor of Fort Bend isn't like a Congress person who has to vote on national issues he does have to take sides on local and even Indiana state issues. I also think the DNC should be a full time job especially now. That said, he does have good qualities and we could do worse to be sure.

Perhaps he knows how to get a toe hole in a red state which can only be seen as a plus.
