This is part of the coordinated attack on Dean. Along with Novak's sneering comments on crossfire, in his role as a hired hitman for the GOP. Then on Face the Nation this morning. Bob Schieffer's transparent end-of-show commentary calls Al Gore a "backstabber" and equates him with ambitious political criminals whose ambition drives them rather than morality. Gore made the endorsement of someone else, not to further a candidacy of his own, yet Schieffer takes the gossip as gospel. The rest of Schieffer's commentary was, finally, respectable, saying politicians in general have no shame, which applies to nearly everyone except Al Gore. The idea is to destroy Al Gore, as a way to reduce Dean somehow. Next, we see General Meyer, the Time cover page on US soldiers as Man-of-the-Year, and Senator Pat Roberts reading the same script in a chorus - that Iraq's a great place to have invaded, and things are just fine, w. or w/o WMDs. We'll see a whole host of attacks on Dems in general and Dean in particular this coming week.
