1. Thanks for posting this...It's a great look at two

heroes of the left disagreeing..and doing it with supreme graciousness. IMO.

I've always been a big fan of Dean, but in this case, I agreed with Rachel.

2. I don't know why anyone would unrec this...It shows a great video of Dr. Dean and Rachel disagreeing

on this point and doing so with grace and intelligence.

8. Because the video displays how grown ups do it

A sharp contrast to the "discussions" here.

3. Hey SL. I personally find Dean's defense weak and I mean dangerously weak.

One of my other key issues was the way he was using Progressive. I need a definition on what that is for Dean. Because Progressive does NOT = Left. Which was annoying the hell out of me.

4. Maybe, but I think the arguments against Daley are pretty weak to begin with and if that's so

you really dont need a defense.

6. They should, athough I am not surprised that they haven't. This melodramatic outrage at Obama's

appointments started from the beginning. This is Rahm redux. They didnt get it then and they will not get it now.

7. Chief of Staff is a very personal choice for any President. They spend

more time with the President and are more deeply involved in every aspect of the administration than anyone else besides the President. A President should be abl to choose whomever they want as their COS without having to listen to griping from anyone.
