OK, so perhaps it won't be Howard Dean. Perhaps the day before the New Hampshire primary he'll throw himself off the stage and choke an audience member who accuses him of being too angry. The evening news might show him rhythmically squeezing some old guy's neck while shouting "I – DON'T – THINK – I'M – ANGRY – ENOUGH!"
End of campaign — unless such an outburst boosts his numbers. If the Democrats thought that this egotistical, bad-tempered, scary-eyed, say-anything guy could whomp President Bush, he'd be a shoo-in. But Dean is starting to turn off the middle that he needs to win. Perhaps they'd best look around.
So who's left?
John Edwards has snared that all-important Des Moines Register endorsement; it went straight to his head, where it probably had the place to itself. (Edwards is this election's equivalent of a Ken doll lost under the seat of the family SUV. No one notices when it's gone, and few care when it shows up again.)

"...A black man running with a watermelon..."
I just don't get it. Nader? Watermelon? What's the connection? Anything like John McCain and artichokes?
Nader, like a watermelon, is Green on the outside and Red on the inside.
Just says it all.
Man, that one is worthy of passing along!! Bravo! Take a bow!
