Howard Dean - "Mr. Crazy"

It looks like Howard Dean has done it again. First, he broke down in 2004, but was promised a choice spot as political honcho of Democratic National Party and now as his party looks to take a leadership role in national debates and possibly take the White House, the entire party is in disarray over the exclusion of two big states: Florida and Michigan.

Bush won 2 elections handily and the Republicans had a strong showing until the last election because the Democrats were in disarray and had no idea how to lead and stay the course.

There may be dissent in the Republican party but they know how to keep focused and not confuse their constituents; even that Idaho senator who decided not step down is.

This is not a political blog nor do I profess a deep knowledge of the intricacies of such a subject but point out that if a party can't even decide on who can vote and, along those lines, possibly disenfranchise big voting bases of their party, who is to say how they will behave when the nation's healthcare overhaul, Iraq policy, Peace process, and especially our recessionary economy will be decided on capital hill.

So an open call for Howard Dean to resign. This next election is too important to the American people to have party politics trump what citizens of this country want to vote for and acknowledge the issues that are close to their heart.
