Another day...

...another duty to defend Dean.

Political Wire points to an item by Robert Novak which says...

...Democrats "are concerned about the massive negative research" about Howard Dean "stockpiled by President Bush's political operatives."

"The Dean file was compiled by Bush's re-election campaign when it appeared that the former Vermont governor was going to be nominated for president. It is a carefully researched compendium of Dean's often bizarre utterances."

Democrats are concerned, huh? OK, Bob, name one. After all, naming names seemed easy enough when you wanted to out a CIA agent. Surely you have a source for your veiled slander against our presumptive Chair.

But you don't, do you.

Your kind never do.

In fact, I think you'll find that in general, Democrats aren't the least bit worried about the oppo file on Dean, because we know that no matter who leads us, they'll get smeared by the Republican slime machine and their lapdogs in the media echo chamber.

And it doesn't matter, really, because we're right, you're wrong and, as pal 'o Upper Left Cereffusion so eloquently puts it, it's clobberin' time!
