...Other candidates-Joe Lieberman, Bob Graham-are in the parade, but you would hardly know it. This event is mano a mano: Kerry vs. Dr. Howard Dean, the former Governor of Vermont. Dean has about the same number of supporters as 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...
...Hardly surprisingly, the Democrats are demanding an inquiry. The surging support for antiwar Vermont governor Howard Dean in the Democratic nomination race signals deep discomfort among the party's core supporters over the war, and some of those who voted for the war may be inclined to use the presence of fake intelligence in President Bush's case for war to back away from their own support for the invasion.

HOWARD DEAN, former Vermont Governor, formally announcing his candidacy for President several days after his son was arrested for aiding a break-in at a country club...
...celebrate the aborning presidential candidacy of former Vermont Governor Howard Dean, Ben & Jerry's (the quintessential Vermont company) served up a limited-edition "Maple-Powered Howard" sundae last week. (Never mind that the real Ben and Jerry favor Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich.) Other Democrats want in on the eponymous ice-cream war: Joseph Lieberman's staff called TIME to stump for the creation of "Key Limeberman Pie," for "the sweet fellow who wants everyone to get their fair share of the pie," while John Kerry's staff members want a scoop of "Red, White and Blueberry Harley-Riding Kerry...
