I remember when the Howard Dean scream was echoed around corpo media enough to sink a campaign.

At every rally I wonder how many Howard Dean screams Trump would have to do for him to drop in the polls. A dozen each time?

I think the Dean screams would only excite his cult more. They'd be high energy, at least.

*HIGH* ENERGY TRUMP SCREAMS OWN LIBS.

Tells you how the party operated back then more than anything. It's not like the electorate really cared, they were just told they cared and that it should kill his campaign and they were like, "yes thank you DNC that is true".

I was there Gandalf

Although the reality of the Howard Dean scream, is that the media all fucking hated him. They ran with the story, because they couldn't stand him. If Kerry had done that in 04 it wouldn't have ended his campaign
