The head of the Florida Democratic party comes out in favor of Howard Dean for DNC chair, and uses the opportunity to brag about owning a dog named "Lockjaw":

"The only knock against Howard Dean is that he's seen as too liberal," Mr. Maddox said. "I'm a gun-owning pickup-truck driver and I have a bulldog named Lockjaw. I am a Southern chairman of a Southern state, and I am perfectly comfortable with Howard Dean as D.N.C. chair."
