I'm surely just paranoid, but I'm developing this theory about why the conservative media and shadow-movers went to such lengths to kill Dean's candidacy (and yes, I know I said before that Iowa ain't nothing, that the story's not over yet, but I'm coming around to the idea that they really and truly have killed him dead -- about which I harbor no small amount of resentment).

I think they've got something on Kerry. They probably couldn't find anything on Dean.

If this is true, then they'll bring it out when/if it looks like he could mount a serious challenge. Then bam, 4 more years of the Puppet President.

Yay.
