A Quote by Howard Dean
I talked for a long time about that, what I call the hate wing of the Republican Party.And often been criticized for saying it.

Heaven's sakes, there's only one party which I call the Property Party. It's got two wings. One is called the "Republican" and one is called "Democratic." It is the same party so it makes no difference whether a Democrat's elected or a Republican's elected. The ownership remains the same.
