The crazing thing about the "movement" Dean is creating is that, like Goldwater, it would move the Democratic Party to the right, not to the left.

The other crazy thing is that it would be only four years after the Democrats WON an election. It's not like you need to move people who were moved already and who lost because they were cheated, not because they didn't have enought people.

Another crazy thing is, Gore lost because he couldn't make the effort to push for a victory. (And people are thinking of Gore as the leader of the kind of more conservative version of the Democratic Party that Dean is pushing for.)

So, by not trying hard to win, he created an atmosphere in which a conservative Democrat pulls the party to the right for no good reason. Crazy.
