Dean popped up on Larry King and refused to say he was disappointed. Instead, he moved the expectations yardstick back to when he was an asterisk: "If you had told me a year ago that I was going to finish third in Iowa, I would have been delighted." Howard Fineman said that Dean didn't want to talk about himself, his family or his wife, "and that's not the way to win a presidential campaign." Moments later, Dean used the same "if you had told me a year ago" line with Chris Matthews. He said he had taken "a bunch of hits" from his opponents and from "you guys," the media. Uh oh -- Chris Matthews just asked The Wife question. Should Judy have campaigned more? "I think it's about time somebody decided not to use their family as a prop," Dean said. Everyone within shouting distance of a microphone will now offer a theory of what Dean did wrong. He shouldn't have embraced Al Gore, Bill Bradley and Jimmy Carter. He should have been warm and fuzzy. He should have been more disciplined. And on and on. Never mind that no one had heard of Dean a year ago.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/nation/columns/kurtzhoward/
