DEAN’S COJONES

Score one for Howard Dean. There’s no need for him to apologize for his confederate flag remarks. The fact that he held firm under fire last night struck me as a good sign of his tenacity and refusal to give in to p.c. lynch-mobs. He’s absolutely right to say that the Dems need to appeal nationally again – wasn’t that Zell Miller’s point? But the true test of a serious pol is if he can hold fast when being pummeled for the wrong reasons. Dean won the exchange in my eyes.
