RNC chairman to visit Vermont
From the Dean blog:

RNC Chair Travels To Vermont To Attack Dean
BURLINGTON--In another sign of just how unconcerned the Republican National Committee (RNC) is with Governor Dean, the RNC's chair, Ed Gillespie, will travel to Vermont today to preemptively attack a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination.

In the keynote speech at the Vermont GOP's 45th Annual Fall Dinner, Gillespie will underscore how the RNC is not at all afraid to put its special interest-funded President up against the greatest grassroots campaign that presidential politics has ever seen.

While in Vermont, Gillespie is expected to study how Governor Dean managed to balance 11 budgets in a row while providing health care to nearly every child and preserving the environment—accomplishments President Bush has been unable to achieve as president or governor.

"We're pleased that Ed is coming to Vermont to learn about Governor Dean’s record of balancing budgets and providing quality health care," Campaign Manager Joe Trippi said. "Ed's political trip to Vermont to attack Governor Dean in his home state makes it abundantly clear that the Bush campaign is not at all concerned by the governor's message of taking our country back."

So how should the Deanies respond to this? Even if you're not a Deanie, how do you think your candidate should respond if or when the RNC does this to him/her?

1. If he was a man ...
he'd march right into the meeting and beat the s%^t out of him. If he was a man, of course.

2. Perhaps personal violence is not a good thing...
And there are many many more things to being a man than being violent, shooting guns, beating people up, etc - sheesh!!

5. well....
I don't think that will help the "anger" image.

I wish the Dean campaign had more notice since the event is tonight. I would love to see a huge rally take place. Hell, I would rally if this happened to Clark or Kerry just to have a chance to belittle the RNC. I'm in Texas though so unfortunately the RNC has no reason to campaign here. :(

7. RNC will explode its brains
just trying to study Dean's methodology and trying to make it work for America... and failing miserably.
