The Carpetbagger Report > Print > Donnie Fowler quits as Clark’s campaign manager   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) Wesley Clark’s campaign manager, Donnie Fowler, announced yesterday that he is leaving the campaign, saying that he’s frustrated over the divisions between DC political professionals and grassroots supporters who helped lead the “Draft Clark” movement. If Fowler, who was Al Gore’s field director in 2000, wanted local activists to play a larger role in the campaign, he was in a position to help make that happen as Clark’s campaign manager. Fowler did a great job getting the campaign started, but he was not irreplaceable. www.thecarpetbaggerreport.com /wp-print.php?p=726   (385 words)

Burnt Orange Report - Complete Summary: Donnie Fowler Conference Call Fowler’s strengths are clearly his understanding of grassroots organization and technology, and his commitment to reform. Fowler clearly represents a new generation of leadership, and he definitely will have a seat at the table for years to come. Fowler also wants the DNC to show the netroots more respect, and bring the netroots into a decision-making role at the table, instead of just seeing the netroots as a source of money. www.burntorangereport.com /archives/003058.html   (1194 words)

Fowler Showed Southern Roots in DNC Run Fowler positioned himself as an alternative to front-runner Howard Dean, a former Vermont governor and unsuccessful presidential candidate, in the race for the position. Fowler's supporters said Dean proved he lacks the understanding when he said on the presidential campaign trail last year that he wanted "to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks." Fowler said it was just a coincidence that he was trying for the job of DNC chair that his father once held. www.comcast.net /data/news/2005/02/06/52982.xml   (817 words)

Clark’s campaign manager quits - Politics - MSNBC.com DONNIE FOWLER told associates he was leaving over widespread concerns that supporters who used the Internet to draft Clark into the race were not being taken seriously by top campaign advisers. Fowler also complained that the campaign’s message and methods were focused too much on Washington, not key states and the burgeoning power of the Internet, said two associates who spoke on condition of anonymity. Fowler complained that while the Internet-based draft-Clark supporters had been integrated into the campaign, their views were not taken seriously by Fabiani, Klain and other top advisers, many of them based in Washington. www.msnbc.msn.com /id/3130101   (501 words)

It Affects You » Blog Archive » Donnie Fowler gets it   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) If you have a chance to listen to his podcast, listen for the second half on "conceding" and you'll have the flavor of the opening. I was concerned whether Fowler (and the other candidates as well) truly embraced the netroots or just the value of a few buzzwords. Someone asked Fowler how he would have responded, and he answered without the slightest hesitation, "swiftly." He felt the response should have been swift and hard, and said he and others in the field begged the campaign for such a response. www.itaffectsyou.org /blog/index.php?p=370   (903 words)

Slowplay.com » DNC: Fowler steps up as foil to Howard Dean Fowler is very proud of his role as Kerry’s man on the street in Michigan in 2004. Fowler also trumpets good support from union members, Muslims, and African-Americans, which would be like a GOP chair bragging about how well the Republicans did in Wheeler County, Nebraska. Fowler has some advantages over Dean, and I think he would be a more formidable foe for the GOP than Dean would be. www.slowplay.com /archives/2005/01/31/fowler.php   (1432 words)

[No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) Fowler is the son of former DNC chairman Don Fowler, and he has helped run races for Kerry, Al Gore and a host of others. Dean's supporters will stress that Fowler's ASDC endorsement comes just from its executive committee and not from the ASDC as a whole; several ASDC members have already endorsed Dean, including Scott Maddox, the chairman of the Florida Democratic Party. Still, as Fowler points out, there's now a hole in the aura of "inevitability" about a Howard Dean chairmanship, and that can be important in more than just the cosmic way. archive.salon.com /politics/war_room/2005/01/31/dnc1/index.html   (398 words)

Last check: 2007-10-08) I could use this opportunity to critique (is that southern for, complain about) the job Howard Dean is doing as Chairman over at the DNC, but I’ll save that diatribe for another time. Well, I recently checked my inbox and had a message from good ole Donnie.  I assume it was an update for the folks who helped him in his quest to become DNC chairman. Fowler has left the genteel South and made his way back to Silicon Valley. Donnie is a strange cat to figure out sometimes.  You never know where his career path will lead him; must be nice to have options ;-) devinelysouthern.com /?p=121   (218 words)

spiralbound.net » Bad News for Donie Fowler Things have started spiraling downward for Donnie Fowler’s chances at the DNC chair, since the Association of State Democratic Chairs voted overwhelmingly against him to support democratic rock star Howard Dean. Donnie Fowler Jr., a party strategist and son of former national chairman Don Fowler, did enjoy a brief glint of hope Monday, when the 17 member Executive Board of the Association of State Democratic Chairs recommended him to the larger 112 member body. He even went so far as to suggest that Dean’s campaign for the position was “inevitably over”, but when all the dust settled, the Association of Chairs ignored the Executive Board, and voted for Howard Dean by a three to one margin. spiralbound.net /2005/04/13/bad-news-for-donie-fowler   (327 words)

Comments More than twenty-four hours ago, DNC Chair candidate Donnie Fowler posted a diary on MyDD and then fled without answering any of the dozens of questions that people asked. Fowler is trouble not for any obvious policy or reform reasons, in my judgment, but because he's incompetent in my opinion. Fowler has NEVER shown a bit of success at a high level in his work. blogswarm.blogdrive.com /comments?id=754   (1673 words)

Wired News: Technology and the Democrats The 37-year-old Fowler is a lifelong Democratic strategist who specialized in technology issues at the Federal Communications Commission before heading to Silicon Valley in 2001. Last year, Fowler served as Michigan state director for John Kerry's presidential campaign and has largely built his career on the low-profile but essential work of identifying voters and getting them to the polls. Despite his years in the crucible of Silicon Valley technology and love of "blue state" California, he is pursuing the DNC chairmanship with a decidedly "red state" mission: wooing back rural and religious voters in states the party has recently written off. www.wired.com /news/politics/0,1283,66264,00.html   (930 words)

Fowler's Web site, meanwhile, lists some of the expenses he needs the money to cover, like $7.90 for a cab ride in D.C., $299 for Blackberry/phone service, $182 to fly some hack down from New York to Atlanta to spin for him at a regional DNC meeting. We know Donnie's young and all, but we figure the Dems may as well go with someone whose main qualification is his daddy had the job. www.wonkette.com /politics/democrats/for-sale-donnie-fowler-027878.php   (172 words)

Another Day in the Empire Meanwhile, I chance into a bit of disingenuous nonsense penned by one Donnie Fowler, former Clintonista, who takes on the reprehensible Rush “OxyContin” Limbaugh who is stuck in the Clinton bashing mode after all these years, insisting “Clinton lied to a federal judge, so it’s different” than Bush’s hirelings outing a CIA agent. Such criminality and murderous pathology is almost unimaginable—but what is also nearly unimaginable is the stupidity and rank arrogance of liberals such as Donnie Fowler who has the gall to point at Bush. Either Donnie Fowler has a lobotomy, refuses to admit well-documented facts—his boss is one of history’s big time war criminals, a few pegs down from Hitler and Pol Pot—or he believes such barbarity and wanton mass murder is how government does business. kurtnimmo.com /?p=82   (767 words)
