“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

Senator Hillary Clinton

Who sits in the chair?

As I mentioned earlier, Howard Dean is in the running for DNC chair. Here is the text of his announcement. It's pretty good stuff, actually, and it should help alert the Democrats to a few things they may not have already learned.

Kevin Drum's on board already.

But the more I read, the more I like Simon Rosenberg. Oddly enough, Joe Trippi's on board, if only because he thinks Dean would make a better candidate for the Senate or even another Presidential run (I tend to agree) than a chair. And the folks at Liberal Oasis made a good suggestion a while back as well.
