It's extremely petty and bizzare that a show of passion derailed Howard dean's pres ambitions

[Jalether]

You had Nixon,Reagan,Bush snr et al running presidential campaigns on racism and winning yet
this is the cadinal sin that derailed a candidate's presidential and political ambitions, The US is not a serious country and has its priorities all out of wack

"I will have the racist and war criminals please, the overjoyed screaming guy, nah that's a deal breaker"

What He did doesn't even register to me as a big deal at all, it should have been treated as "Howard dean had a moment on stage last night lol" and nothing else should have been made out of it

Media sees itself as the last line of defense if someone they consider too liberal is close to the presidency.

I was to young at that time to pay attention but what was he running on

 

[acri1]

Even at the time (when I was young and barely paying attention to politics) I never understood what the big deal was.

It seems like Democrats are overly panicky and throw their candidates in the bushes the minute Republicans start pearl clutching.

Byiaaah!!

I love lesbians…Byiaahh!!

Blame Dave Chappelle because outside that pop culture reference no one really gave a fukk.

It was always a two horse race between Kerry and Edward's with Dean being a dark horse.

There was a full court press on him unleashed the next day. It insulted my intelligence to hear the bullshyt that pundits were saying, and then to hear co-workers and relatives repeat THEIR words like parrots.

The so-called liberal media discredits every progressive presidential candidate that gains traction by playing up the “crazy” angle.

For the reporters/anchors who write their own copy, and the columnists not just pushing their editor's line, it's self preservation and trying to earn points with the likely nominee.

It’s easier to do when you are more left than the media and party likes.

Leno, Letterman , whoever else had a talk show and every comedian had a field day and jokes galore about this.

The Chappelle bit was for his second season, and by the time that season finally aired it was an old joke.

What MSNBC did to Bernie after he won Arizona is one of the most disgusting examples of media bias that I have ever witnessed.

It was so blatant, that I couldn’t believe what I was looking at. fukking Joy Ann Reid and that fat head Chris Matthews dropped all pretenses of objectivity and went all in on Bernie.

The point again:
No one cared enough about it and it didn't tank his candicy.
The only reason people still talk about it is because of Chappelle show.

Chris Matthews started talking about people getting killed in Central Park.
