Howard Dean romances the crowd at Renaissance Weekend
WEB EXCLUSIVE
By Eleanor Clift
Newsweek
Jan. 2 - A panel offering advice to President Bush and his Democratic
rivals had just gotten underway at Renaissance Weekend in Charleston,
S.C., when a surprise visitor strode to the podium. It was Sen. Fritz
Hollings, South Carolina's senior senator, with a word for the
assembled strivers.
"Howard Dean is right," declared the silver-haired Hollings, launching
into a spirited defense of Dean's assertion that Americans are no
safer now that Saddam Hussein has been captured. "Saddam wasn't
causing anybody any problem. You have some little smart-aleck
announcer on television asking, 'Do you think we're better off with
Saddam gone?' What else is gone? We have 456 dead; 11,000 maimed for
life, and I don't think it was worth it. I had intended to vote
against that resolution [giving Bush the authority to wage war against
Iraq], but Rummy and Condi Rice and Cheney said you can't wait until
the smoking gun is a mushroom cloud. I thought they had some
intelligence, that they knew something."
