A few people of color in high-profile spots (some of whom are clearly there to be the tokens) does not equal a diverse political party. Of course, that could be argued for most of the Democratic party as well.

Exactly - which is why what Dean said didn't make sense. The leadership of the Democratic party doesn't exactly scream diversity either. There's no reason for either party (or its supporters) to take a high and mighty stance on the issue.
I'm not too upset about it either way; it's all just part of the rhetoric.
