Give 'em Hell Howard !

Bradley said of Dean: ``I think Howard Dean has the strongest free media presence (of the Democratic contenders)'

Bradly's right about this, the opposition from GOP and media has been obsessive, creating the "any news is good news", just like the Clinton impeachment, where his number went up when he was attacked. The Rove reverse psychology (the GOP wants Dean! We'll trounce him!) is backfiring. It was hilarious on Meet the Press yesterday seeing Bill Safire's pained expression while complaining, "all we're doing on this show is talking about Dean", then talking more about Dean himself, lol!

This part is amusing: Not only is Bradley a popular figure in Democratic circles, but the former professional basketball player and one-time Rhodes Scholar also has lucrative fund-raising contacts in greater New York, where he has been working as an investment banker and management consultant. Last year he also was appointed to the board of directors of the Starbucks Coffee Co.

Is that what all ex-leading-contenders do when they stop contending, go into investment banking?
