Dean Picks Targets Among the Red States...

DNC Chairman and Grand Poo-bah Moonbat Howard Dean has publicly announced he plans to actually spend some money on the State party machines of four States that Bush carried last November.

The States in question are Missouri, North Carolina, North Dakota and West Virginia. Interesting considering Missouri was once considered a bellwether "toss-up" and West Virginia had been firmly in Democrat hands since...well since there have been Democrats.

Looks to me more like they're trying to stop the bleeding. While North Carolina does have a lot of transplanted Blue Staters, I'd say it's still a tall order to turn that one Blue. And North Dakota? Forget it.

"This is just the beginning," Dean told state Democratic chairs at a meeting of their association in Little Rock, Ark. "We will announce additional investments in the weeks ahead."
The announced investment in the State parties is $465,000, a pretty paltry sum in the grand scheme of things. I find it curious that the number isn't higher. Perhaps it's just dipping the toe in the water and it wouldn't represent a huge loss if the venture fails.

I suppose it makes sense to Dean, though. Spend some money to build up the grass roots organization, so they can better get their message out: that anything Bush supports is bad. And that Republicans "are mean" and "not nice people".

Sounds like a winner to me.
