Personality conflicts would be what keep Dean from getting the post. Rahm yes, but some other members of Congress too. Dean definitely has the chops for the job, though. If enough of us make noise in his favor, it might work. (That's partly how he became DNC Chariman, btw.) @Steve - I agree, but more generally.

He tried to stop Dean's 50 state strategy, which is arguably what won the election. Rahm doesn't like to be proven wrong.

The discrimination lawsuit you're referring to is baseless in my opinion. I've been involved with the Dean campaign and Democracy for America since 2004. I've been on conference calls with Howard Dean. I can attest to the fact that he is an effective progressive leader with a good moral compass. Over the past two years, his efforts are largely responsible for resurrecting the Democratic Party. Richard, sorry — I don’t buy it.

This guy is Mr Racist right out of a Stephen King novel. (see Abenaki) He cost the DNC big money with the sex discrimination. His kid got to skate on a nighttime burglary job. His signing the Gay Bill was under extreme duress and not sincere. People check him out instead of just blindly promoting him. Do your homework.
