Dean: McCain "Is Back In the 1940s"
May 06, 2008 4:24 PM
Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean took to the CNN airwaves today to declare Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., "wrong on the courts, he's wrong on Iraq, he's wrong on the economy, he's wrong on healthcare -- supporting President Bush's veto of the children's healthcare bill. He's even sadly wrong on torture, he went out and stood up against using torture which the United States should not be using if we want to be a great nation and then he supported President Bush's veto of the bill that would have stopped it."
Continued Dean: "This is a guy who is back in the 1940's and we need a president for 2010."
He's back in the 1940s?
Is that yet another subtle dig at the septuagenarian Republican who would be the oldest president ever first elected to the White House? Despite Dean's semi-pledge to not attack McCain directly on that front?
DNC spox Karen Finney says no. "Governor Dean was saying that while our candidates are talking about America's future, John McCain is talking about continuing the failed policies of the past," she says.

I have to think that Dr Dean is a smart man. It takes brains and study to be a doctor, but......this guy can't even run an election process and dashed his future in elective politics with a schoolboy scream. His type of politics is truly old school.
He is about -1 on the credibility scale.

Buford,
There are 6 FORMER GOP Senators who are no longer in office thanks to Howard Dean and his work in the 2006 elections. Go ask them about his effectiveness. LOL!!!!

This man (Dean) is an enormous gasbag. The things that come out of his mouth are just amazing. If I were head of the RNC, I would certainly be thankful to have such a nitwit as my opponent.
