Howard Dean, remember him ?  He's apparently back from a vaguely defined low key primary season to pronounce that one of the two democratic candidates need to 'quit' to unify the party.  Really ? Thank God he made that clear for us.   The more pressing issue is 'when' and Dr. Dean apparently beleives we can go another month or two of in-fighting, bickering, attacking, cross purpose fund raising, dividing.. pick your fatalistic term.  I'm thinking yesterday would've been a good time... for the one in the race that doesn't play basketball, but I understand how that certain candidate feels obligated to hang tough and fight and avoid being tagged with the ''Q'' word.... problem is.. it may result in at least 4 more years of war and death , while the Dems do clever post mortems and plot strategy for 2012 ... Is Chelsea too young then ?. Tragic.
