Howard Dean is hardly what you would call a high-tech guru. The former Vermont Governor, whose trademark look is a blue shirt with rolled-up sleeves, is a mostly gadget-free zone. He does not carry a BlackBerry email pager or tablet PC (he leaves those to his aides). And don't expect to find Dean, 54, surfing the Web for hours at home. "I kind of missed the Internet boom," concedes the physician...
...make such acquisitions without cutting back elsewhere. Shopping at a department store in Omaha, Chantalle Galbraith, 30, a part-time medical examiner, points to her 20-month-old son and 5-month-old daughter in a double stroller. "My son has on Tommy [Hilfiger] shoes and a Nautica shirt. My daughter is wearing Polo," she says. Gesturing at her plain blue T shirt, she says, "I got this at Shopko"--a mass-merchandise chain...

"It doesn't get much better than this," he says, a statement meant to convey enthusiasm but which comes off as Kerry's awkward guess at what a politician ought to be saying in such circumstances...
...Kerry-but they're younger, more enthusiastic and much more creative. Some are wearing white doctors' coats, brandishing stethoscopes and passing out tongue depressors with the words "Rx for America: Howard Dean." The Governor, however, seems unprepared for parading. He's wearing navy pinstripe suit pants, a blue business shirt and his perennial black penny loafers. When we shake hands, he blurts the first thing that comes to mind: "It's good we're not right behind the horses. That always happens in Vermont-it's a message, I guess. You have to watch your step, which is a pain...
