A low shot and a desperate attempt.

Democrat Dean Hints at Rival's Wrinkle Rumors

Sun February 01, 2004 06:56 PM ET

ROSEVILLE, Mich. (Reuters) - Is John Kerry really starting to get under Howard Dean's skin?
The Democratic presidential candidates have been squaring off over taxes, the Iraq war and special interest money, but on Sunday Dean appeared to resurrect speculation that the front-runner has been getting Botox injections to smooth out wrinkles.

As he telephoned supporters around the country, Dean, a physician and the former governor of Vermont, glanced up and caught a glimpse of country singer Willie Nelson on television.

"It looks like he had Botox injections, too," Dean remarked with a broad smile.

After the laughter subsided, he quickly added: "I didn't say who the other person was. I didn't say who the other person was."

When the question 'do you deny you've used Botox or other cosmetic enhancements' was put to Kerry on a Boston radio station last week, the Massachusetts senator replied: "Absolutely, I've never even heard of it."

Botox works by paralyzing the muscles that produce worry lines around the eyes and on the forehead.

Mephisto,
I was fascinated with Dean's statement that country's current political atmosphere is comparable to the one during McKinley administration when large corps had usurped American gov from the people. He said Teddy Roosevelt restored it to Lincoln's "by the people, of the people, for the people" mandate.

The positive effects of new campaign manager are evident with his prominent TV appearances. Dean always presents his "take back America" theme well when given a forum.
Media insists he does not have a chance, but Dean's persistence seems to be warming some of them up to another frontrunner upset. As of now Howard Dean has more delegates than Kerry. Press never mentions that. Visit MSNBC website to see the current breakdown of delegates.
