Dean Seeks Bush Wake-Up Call on 'Sleepless' Tour

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Sleepless in Seattle, Spokane or San Antonio? Anxious in Austin? Counting sheep in Chicago?

Dr. Howard Dean, Democratic presidential contender, will visit all five cities, and four others, over an 80-hour period starting on Saturday, touting a prescription for insomniacs worried about their jobs or safety -- vote Dean in 2004.

"There are millions of regular Americans who are sleepless over the state of the nation today," said Courtney O'Donnell, Dean's deputy communications director. "While for many, summer means vacation, this year a lot of Americans are facing a season of anxiety."

The former Vermont governor's campaign has asked Americans to go online and explain what is keeping them awake this summer, whether it be the sluggish economy, fear of terrorism, the war in Iraq or something else.

Give me the cure Doc.

The Dean campaign, during Dean's Sleepless Summer tour, is also trying to match the $1 million Bush raised at his last $2,000 a plate luncheon.

I hope everyone will send at least some donation to Dean's campaign. If you can send only $5, send that; if you can send $10, send that; if you can send more, that's great -- please do so.

Here's the place to send your contributions and WIPE THE SMIRK off The Smirk's face: http://www.deanforamerica.com/contribute

Let's wipe that smirk off The Smirk's face.

I'll be there tomorrow
