Howard Dean's Quagmire

Dean: Look for the union label


If you like postwar Iraq, you'll love the rest of Howard Dean's presidential campaign.

It's ironic that Dean made his name opposing the war. His campaign bears a striking resemblance to it. Skeptics said toppling Saddam Hussein would take months, but it was over in a flash. The same seems true of the Democratic presidential contest. Dean has blown away his competitors in the money race. He's tied with Dick Gephardt in the polls in Iowa—Dean will probably win it—and he's killing John Kerry in New Hampshire. Today in the ballroom of the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C., Dean gets the joint endorsement of two powerful labor unions. Their message is: The race is over. Dean has the magic, the money, and now the muscle. The atmosphere is celebratory. The only thing missing is a banner declaring, "Mission Accomplished."
