It isn't easy being Dean

Watching some live C-Span coverage just now, I heard Howard Dean, chairman of the Democratic Party, do a riff on something Barack Obama said last night after winning in Iowa.

I'm not sure if Dean intentionally mimicked Obama, but the result was pretty funny.

My approximation of what Obama said in his victory speech:

"There are no red states and there are no blue states, these are the United States."

And here's what I heard Dean just say:

"There are no red states, there are no blue states, there is America; purple states."
