Howard Dean On Midterms: Obama "Doing Exactly The Right Thing"



(Real Clear Politics Video) - "The Republicans are absolutely wrong on every issue," former DNC chairman Howard Dean declared on MSNBC.

Dean says Republicans are using the "Bush tax cuts and unemployment" to run on in the midterm elections.

"George Bush caused this economy," he said. Howard Dean says the midterm elections are not a referendum on Obama, but a choice between the Bush economy and Obama's plans for our economy.

Dean says Obama should be out at least four times a week to explain his message on the economy. "It has to be delivered four times a week, every week, from now until November," Dean said.

Dean tells Obama to "call a spade a spade" when it comes to the Republicans.
