People routinely switch from hard right to hard left, just like people switched from communism to fascism and vice versa. Eric Hoffer wrote about this in books like The True Believer.
Just because all of us may have a fixed position on the political landscape doesn't mean everyone does. Reagan won over Democrats. Dean is trying to win over working-class Republicans. His confederate flag comments helped that cause.
Dean knows what he's doing. Watch him. He'll take the nomination, and then win the presidency a year from now.
Whether that will really redeem the country we'll have to wait and see.
