But when Newt was in office, many in the GOP were forced to back track, go on the defensive and distance themselves from some of his more cooky comments.<BR/><BR/>The Democratic Party Chair is in a unique position to say controversial and negative things about Republicans, leaving elected officials "above the fray" and not in a position to have to defend their own foot-in-mouth issues. <BR/><BR/>While I love what Dean says about Republicans, those comments are good for riling up the base, not building a majority...and a majority is what our elected officials need to get into and stay in office.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1118769220351842392005-06-14T13:13:00.000-04:002005-06-14T13:13:00.000-04:00Hmmm...when do the Republicans criticize their Cha...Hmmm...when do the Republicans criticize their Chairman?Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439330154875628083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-1118763008242054542005-06-14T11:30:00.000-04:002005-06-14T11:30:00.000-04:00This is exactly how the Chairman and the Democrati...This is exactly how the Chairman and the Democratic elected officials are supposed to act.<BR/>The Chair makes inflamatory comments and throws red meat to the base, while our elected officials scold him and look moderate to the voters.
