The Party’s Over


Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean is going to be in town Monday. Political reporter Wendy March quotes local party leaders as saying the purpose of the visit is reconciliation. And while he’s here they will hold a $1,000 a plate dinner, which is a pretty steep price for crow.
But the party faithful have no shame. They cheated Florida voters this year, denied them the opportunity of picking a candidate and now here they are asking for money. They’ll get it too because power is more important to party leaders than being fair to voters.
They don’t care that they are more than a little responsible for a field so weak on both sides you almost wish nobody would win.
