All kidding aside this Dean 3rd party thing is an astue observation. If Dean does not get this nomination he is finished in democrat politics. He has not only burned his bridges he has drained the river. However, this insane asylum of an organization he has put together could make him a real player in 3rd party politics. His followers are really a cult and he can ask for a million bucks and they send their lunch money and allowances to him by the thousands. 3rd party candidates are a weird breed, they make a career of running and losing but they keep a core of true believers that allow for a very comfortable living. Dean has the same thing going for him that Perot had in 92. This guy is not going to bow out gracefully.
