Howard Dean Fails as a Credible Spokesman

Re “Dean Says Democrats Will Make Schiavo Case an Election Issue,” April 16: The outrageous attack on an independent judiciary by House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) and his followers will certainly win some new votes for the Democrats in 2006, but Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean is not a credible spokesman for this issue. Bush was elected by the moderate center, which rejects both the Deaniac left and the creationist right. It’s time to resurrect Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.).
