Clinton was told she was on her own by Charles Rangel and the entire NY Congressional wing. Even Tubbs-Jones was on tv being congenial. If Clinton had won the Dems might as well had been Repubs for all the good it would've done. Obama pulled the party back from the brink of destruction! I love how he's going to diminish the influence of the PACs and lobbyists. Anyone who thought he was weak will see how foolish it was to underestimate him. <br/><br/>Ok now that we've got our man, what do we want?<br/>The CBC operation clean house is still pending.

Clinton was going to boot Dean from the job if she got the nomination, and replace him a DLC hack. The nomination battle was long viewed as a proxy fight over the direction of the DNC by those paying attention, but that fight got short shrift in the media.

We know Carville’s singing a different tune these days, and someone needs to remind him when he said Howard Dean sucked at the job; yet Obama is now the Democratic Nominee by using that very strategy, and he’s rewarding Howard Dean by virtually ensuring that he remains as DNC Chair.

Carville’s strategy has resulted in eight years of George Bush – need I say more?

Without his contributions the sweet victory we enjoy this week would not have been possible. Now the DNC combined with the community organizer ethic that created the most powerful democratic political machine in history will become unstoppable. I told my white Max in February the race was over in IOWA. Momentum in science is a transfer of energy that is not always visible until the end result. Now Obama proved me right. Barack the Vote!

I read also, that he wasn't an "insider" in the party. Maybe that appeals to Barack on principle. I like the way Dean goes after McCain. I'm glad they're not hanging him out to dry.
