I cannot imagine why anyone would think Dean's speech was shameful or embarrassing. Politicians are supposed to have personality.

Patrick quoted Tom Tomorrow:

If I were in the Dean camp right now, I'd be trying to pull a little jiu-jitsu--turn that "yeaarrggh" thing around, make it a joke, embrace it. Open campaign rallies with that remix that's floating around the 'net. Hand out t-shirts to volunteers which just say "YEEAAARRRGGH" across the front. Maybe have Dean open speeches with some mildly self-deprecating joke: "I've taken a lot of kidding for my speech in Iowa--but if you think I was hollering then, wait till you get the bill for Bush's spending spree!"

You can't make it go away, but you can turn it around.

Wow, I hadn't heard that remix! Thanks!

Maybe I should be ashamed or embarrassed...but I liked it. :)

It will be tricky. We will not only have to get down on all fours to look at it from the electorate's point of view, but also stoop even futher to the Sweater Corps (formerly the Newspaper of Record).

Dean's doing the Top 10 on Letterman tonight. I think this is promising.
