How a person loses shows more of their character than how they win
Dean made himself a winner today by showing he would continue the fight to change the Democratic Party and by showing support for the eventual nominee. I was very impressed. The Democratic Party needs to be changed and to become more responsive to the wishes of the people. In coming elections, we need to determine what paths our party follows and not let the news media and the power brokers decide who is electable and what issues are worth pursuing.

2. From the Lion in Winter
Prince Geoffrey: You fool. As if it matters how a man falls.
Prince Richard: When the fall is all that's left, it matters.

Heard the speech or parts of it in Hardees--thought it was very good.

6. I Agree
He withdrew with class, as did Wes Clark.

I'm sad because the 2 grassroots guys are gone.
