and the media and consultant have pretty much kept it from us....made us think he did not do well.

Dean did indeed outraise McAuliffe

See, I'm much less likely to be impressed with money and fundraising issues.  Why?  When McAuliffe was Chair of the DNC, all I ever heard about him was that he was a great fundraiser. 

I hope when people think about Howard as DNC chair they think about the 50 state strategy.  While that does go hand in hand with money raised, the idea alone is so much more important than almost any idea that came out of the DNC in decades.

Money alone does not win elections.  Money and bad ideas won't win elections.  Money and good ideas are the key and Howard knows that.

Howard Dean, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and ALL 50 STATES - a powerful team, indeed!
