alt=”A picture named ketchupsmall.gif”>Jim Moore reports
from the Dean campaign. A couple of thoughts. I’d be more encouraged if
the campaign were getting inspiration from new people “in the field” –
although that would reflect an imbalance in perspective. Second, how
about doing something creative with the money? Now that we know how the
2003 money was wasted, what’s going to change in 2004? What is the
newly funded Dean campaign going to do to empower our minds? The
rallies clearly didn’t make a difference. Nor did the expensive
collateral material or television ads. Wouldn’t an Internet campaign
make it easy for voters who care to find out what the issues are, in
plain understandable terms? Activate and then empower our minds, that’s
the challenge. That way, should your guy become the front-runner again,
we’ll all know where to tune to get the counter-arguments when CNN and
ABC go after him. Maybe Dean is the rare phoenix who gets to rise from
the ashes. If so, let’s get to level 2.
P.S. Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit pointed to this same comment that Dave is pointing to, with the two resulting in mega traffic to my blog. Thanks Glenn and Dave!
