Dean Looming Larger on Bush's Horizon; GOP Advisers Who Had Relished Democrat's Candidacy Are Now More Wary
"Advisers to President Bush once relished a race against Howard Dean, but they say they have become increasingly wary of him, worried that his unconventional and intense appeal poses a threat they had once underestimated.'
Of course, last time they were faced with somebody like this — John McCain — Karl Rove managed to "neutralize" him quite effectively; hopefully Joe Trippi and company have read Boy Genius and are preparing to deal with whatever gets thrown at them. It's going to be nasty.
