Howard Dean stopped in Seattle during his sleepless summer tour. Approximately 8,000 people turned out at the West Lake Center to greet him. Our local tv station covered the event for a few minutes. I was at home, but I could feel the chemistry between Howard and these people. Seattle fell in love with Howard Dean, and it was then that I decided that he'd get my vote if he ran against George W. Bush. So I think the article you mentioned was right: "Long before Howard Dean was considered a plausible candidate for president, he seemed to emit some sort of secret call that made people, many of them previously apolitical, drop everything and devote themselves to his campaign. Even after the campaign's 45 official intern positions were filled, people kept showing up -- mostly young people, but also senior citizens in R.V.'s and middle managers from Microsoft. "
