Republicans for Dean? Hugh Hewitt did a bit for his blog last week about what Dean should do to get over the "I Have a Scream" speech. Today Andrew Sullivan wades in with a
fisking of a Washington Post article about the Deans by Ann Gerhart.
Of course, they are helping out Dean for the same reason why I registered with Dean's
Blog for America. We want to keep the Vermonster alive so he can continue to amuse us, possibly win the Democrats' nomination, and go down in flames to President Bush in the general election. Note particularly that Andrew exhorts Dean to continue to be amusing:
No, it's not. We all love a candidate who's a little bit nutty. Everyone has their moments. Dean's scream was hilarious and it was temporarily damaging. But take another look-see. The polls in New Hampshire are turning around a little. Dean's authenticity, his rage, his cojones got him where he is today--still the guy with the most money and some of the most passionate support. If Dean is to last, he shouldn't give up his fire.
