Howard Dean really knows how to push this crowds buttons. They adore him.
I only bring up Wilson because he was extraordinarily popular at last year’s YearlyKos, as evidenced by this quote from Hunter in Un::Conventional:
It is Thursday night, and I have just shaken the hand of Ambassador Joe Wilson. I saw him pass in the hall today three or four times, and finally I just caved in, went up to him and asked to shake his hand. I had a few sentences prepared; I knew just what I wanted to say. Unfortunately, what I wanted to say and what I managed to say, putting myself on the spot, were two entirely different things-and I managed only a pathetic, stuttering, ‘I just think you’re great’ and/or other such teenybopper sentiments, a few brilliant hallyway insights of the type I am sure he is roundly accustomed to. Sigh.
Sigh, indeed. Dean’s calling out my man Sunnunu now. Blah, blah, blah.
