Dean to Stay in Race Until Ringing in Head Stops
Scrappleface
(2004-02-09) -- Former Democrat presidential frontrunner Howard Dean today reversed his previous pledge to drop out of the race if he loses the Wisconsin primary. He now promises to stay in "until this ringing in my head stops."
âDing dong- ya ok Howard just take a nice nap now, the men in the white coats are on the wayâ
"Even if I donât win Wisconsin or any other state, I will continue to run," Mr. Dean told a small crowd of supporters in Sheboygan.
âProbably there to see if he has anymore freakout speechesâ
"If I donât get the nomination, I will run as an independent. And if I lose the general election, I will immediately announce my 2008 campaign and keep running. I will never stop running for president. This is my profession -- my calling.
âIâm not self delusional am I? ..theyâre coming to take me way ha ha, theyâre coming to take me away ho ho hee hee, to the funny farmâŠ.â
The ringing in my head beckons me to strive inexorably onward. Can you hear the ringing? Can you hear it?"
âuh ya man sureâŠâŠ.ya we hear itâŠâ
The crowd erupted in applause and shouts of "Yes, we hear it. Run Howard, run!" âSimilar to people who have been known to egg on suicide jumpersâ
