NJ for Democracy 2005

Friday, 14 January 2005

Corporate sponsors and big donors have been writing checks for $250,000 each to pay for George Bush's inaugural soiree in Washington, DC. Meanwhile, Democracy for America is getting ready to celebrate the other people who were elected in November -- fiscally responsible, socially progressive Democrats who won up and down the ballot.

Start planning your party now and join with supporters nationwide on a conference call with Gov Howard Dean

Don't sit home alone yelling at the TV coverage of the inaugural—that's bad for your blood pressure. Follow this simple protocol and host a party with your fellow progressives and the good Doctor. I guarantee you will feel much better.

Howard Dean : "I'm Running"

Tuesday, 11 January 2005

Text from Governor Dean's announcement:

As I have traveled across our country, I have talked to thousands of people who are working for change in their own communities about the power of politics to make a difference in their own lives and in the lives of others. Every group I have spoken to, I encouraged them to stand up for what they believe and to get involved in the electoral process—because the only sure way to make difference is to step up and run for office yourself.

Today, I'm announcing my candidacy for the Chairmanship of the Democratic National Committee.
