I read Friday’s Hotline (National Journal’s crack for political junkies) a little late (as in, this morning). According to a Hotline suvey of the DNC membership (42 percent responded), 31 percent say Howard Dean is their first choice for chairman. Next up is Martin Frost at 16 percent. (See more here.)

One member suggested God. Without getting into the political affiliation of God (a question I was recently asked by an interviewer but managed to avoid answering), that seems like their way out of the current rut.
