My favorite response from a Freeper...
"...and we're gonna talk to Diane and then we're gonna talk to Katie Couric and then we're gonna chat with Matt Lauer, and then we're gonna schmooze with Ted Koppel, and after that we're gonna have tea with Dan Rather...and then, we're gonna go to Washington D.C. and smoke crack with Marion Barry!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW!!!"

Well, this is a presidential campaign. You have to expect that the media is going to seize on any sign of weakness - and I think that they should. They owe it to voters to be merciless in their coverage. I'm much more worried about the media being too nice to candidates than being too harsh. I just wish they would find more substantive criticisms, rather than making a big deal because a guy's voice went a little falsetto during a speech.

BNW - the problem is, in many people's eyes, it wasn't a 'gaffe', and we're being told that it is 'self-evident' that it was.

Tonight, he hits the trifecta - the NH Debate (MSNBC, 8), Diane Sawyer (ABC, 10), and then Letterman.

Also, I think that people are projecting anger onto Dean's speech, when it could just as easily be interpreted as determination and resolve. It's important to remember the context of that speech. He wasn't talking to a roomful of undecided voters - it was basically a pep rally for his supporters. I think Dean's response to this incident makes the whole thing a lot more understandable:
"There were 3,500 screaming kids in that room who'd worked their hearts out for me in Iowa, all of them waving an American flag," he said. "I thought I owed it to them to buck up their spirits and I was pleased that I did."

Instead of bitching about the media, Dean and his supporters should be trying to turn this to their advantage: make "Yearggh!" T-shirts, run a Dean Scream Remix contest on their Web site, and Dean should make a self-deprecating joke about it on Letterman, say that he had been watching "Network" and got a little carried away. Otherwise it really will turn into a Dukakis-in-the-tank moment. I mean, if the whole problem with the screaming is that it makes Dean seem angry and humorless, trying to deny that it was funny and hinting at dark conspiracies just reinforce that negative perception.

I would agree with you if the media was presenting it that way: as something funny. But they're not. They're presenting it as a damning character flaw. The big question in all the news articles I've read is not "Was it funny?" but "Does it render Dean unelectable?" That is an absurd spin to put on the incident, and I'm not above suspecting the motives of some of the people putting that spin on it.

Maybe it just seemed weird to me because it came after a loss, and that's when candidates usually act subdued.

Just my two cents but if I were in the Dean camp right now, I'd be trying to pull a little ju jitsu--turn that "yeaarrggh" thing around, make it a joke, embrace it. Open campaign rallies with thatremix that's floating around the 'net. Hand out t-shirts to volunteers which just say "YEEAAARRRGGH" across the front. Maybe have Dean open speeches with some mildly self-deprecating joke: "I've taken a lot of kidding for my speech in Iowa--but if you think *I* was hollering then, wait till *you* get the bill for Bush's spending spree!"You can't make it go away, but you can turn it around.
