Former presidential candidate Howard Dean today offered no apologies for one of the statements he made that many believe cost him votes in Iowa’s Caucuses. Dean says he doesn’t “regret for one second” saying that the U-S is not safer because of Saddam Hussein’s capture, and he says that’s still the case. However, Dean says when Barry Goldwater said he’d rather be right than president, “he didn’t know what he was talking about.” Dean spoke this morning to Iowa Democrats in Boston. Dean began his speech this morning by saying “yahoo,” and told reporters afterwards he was poking fun at himself and his infamous “I Have A Scream” speech the night of the Iowa Caucuses. Hear more about that this afternoon on Radio Iowa.
