Howard Dean makes nice with red-staters

Howard Dean, the new Democratic Party Chairman has said that he wants to reach out to the voters in the red states and earn their respect. According to the Washington Post, he has a really fascinating way of going about winning over those Republicans.

Dean has suggested that they are "evil." That they are "corrupt." He called them "brain-dead" during a stop in Toronto -- and while the Terri Schiavo case was still in the news. He has tagged Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) as a "liar." Last week, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported that he mimicked a "drug-snorting Rush Limbaugh" at an event there.

Way to reach out, Howie.
