Where has the substance gone?

If notoriously liberal CNN is reporting this, then I think it should be somewhat a cause for alarm.

In a speech Thursday before a Washington conference sponsored by the "Campaign for America's Future," Dean told the audience that many Republicans "had never made an honest living in their lives."

Ouch.

Thursday's comments were not the first of Dean's to generate controversy. In April, he called Republicans "mean. They are not nice people."

I hate to say it, but the Democrats these days are acting so bitter that they seem to have forgotten what it means to have a party platform and then actually spell it out (isn't that how you attract voters anyway?). This harsh negativity has got to end sometime, and Chairman Dean surely isn't helping with all of these crazy antics of his.

Shameful.
