Thanks, Howard

I'm watching Alexandra Pelosi's documentary on the 2004 Democratic Primary, _Diary of a Political Tourist_. Unfortunately, I missed the beginning.

Kerry just won the Iowa Caucus, and Dean just did The Scream Heard Round The World.

Remember all this? Remember the unstoppable Howard Dean Machine? I do. I remember liking all the good ol' lefty fury driving it all -- the sense of engagement, the sense of populist change --and my niggling sense that the Republicans would have made lunchmeat out of him.

Ach... thank you, Howard Dean. You got us motivated way back when -- you reminded us that this is our country to care about. I'll think of you this weekend in Pennsylvania, and we'll all think of you on Tuesday, when we all do our part to take our country back.

Are you ever gonna blog again? (Depressed fingers have got no rhythm. It's not easy to pretend, we know Bush is a fool...)
