Howard Dean on Cliven Bundy’s Race Comments: ‘This Is a Huge Gift to Us’

KAY: "I think this does, as you said Joe, put a spotlight on those conservative politicians with national ambitions."
DEAN: "This is a huge gift to us because it falls into the stereotype that a lot of people already have about Republicans. And it's not fair. What happens is the media picks up the most extreme example whether it's the left or right. This is an extreme example and the right wing fell right into the trap that was set by Bundy."
SCARBOROUGH: "Well you say the right wing. Some people."
DEAN: "The far right. The nut jobs."
SCARBOROUGH: "And you know Jazz Shaw came on. We had Jazz on and he were going back and forth. And he said, hey, there may have been a better way for the government to handle this when they had the confrontation, but this guy's completely wrong on grazing. That's hot air, they distance themselves from it. Eric Erickson with Red State, one of the most conservative people you'll meet."
DEAN: "This guy's basically bragging that he doesn't pay his taxes. That's what he is."
SCARBOROUGH: "Again, he's a free loader and by the way when you say everybody owns everything, and I'm sorry, Howard, you may understand this philosophy more than me, that sounds like socialism. That's socialism."
DEAN: "Or something, I don't know."
