That article in the Post is their fantasy of how the Democratic race will play out. Actually, nobody knows at this point, who the candidate will be and that is probably a good thing.

Bush is now down to a job-approval rating of only 51 percent. More ominously for the Republicans, in a trial heat against any Democrat (except Howard Dean), he scores below the crucial 50 percent mark. Against Al Gore and John Kerry, he gets only 48 percent, and against Clark, drops to 47 percent. When an incumbent president is below 50 percent of the vote, he is in desperate trouble. (Bush still manages 52 percent against Dean.) Asked if Bush should be re-elected, Americans vote no by 50-44. I believe it will get worse for Bush before the end... His only hopes were a strong economic recovery, with jobs, and/or reconciling with the UN and fixing Iraq. Today's action seems to have nixed the second. He'll have to pray for the first....maybe his close personal relationship with God will pay off there. Cause God only knows when those jobs are coming back...
