The best part of this is that all of the Dems running for these 5 open seats in the South are going to have to disavow any affinity with or agreement with Howard Dean in order to have a chance in h-e-double toothpicks.

Should be very interesting.

Fingers crossed. I'm not counting my chicks before they hatch.

Although I would like Dean to be the Democratic nominee, it's still too early in the game.

Of course, if Dean is at the top of the ticket, Democrats will have a hard time picking up any Senate seat in the South, even in moderate Florida.

Howie Dean as the dim candidate should help the Pubs pick up a couple of those open Senate seats in the South. One thing's for sure, there won't be any "joint appearances" between the Senate candidate and Howie.
