Howard Dean, Part Deux

My man Jonah Goldberg wrote a column about Howard Dean's upcoming reign as the Democratic National Committee chairman.

What was so hysterical was the anecdote at the end. I can't tell it any better than the J-man, so I'll just let him:

"Later, at another gathering, Gloria Nieto, vice chair of the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Caucus, broke into sobs, wondering aloud whether the Democrats would remain a welcoming home for lesbians. Dean immediately 'leaped off the stage into the audience to hug her,' writes [Christianity Today's Tony] Carnes. 'With a sob of his own catching his voice, he brought the audience to standing ovation' when he declared, 'That's why I am a Democrat.'"

Folks, this is not a serious party.
