You're not being fair.

All that's happening right now is that

1) A democratic candidate is attacking the President's policies
2) it has made him MORE and not LESS viable as a candidate.

We're not mindless robots or whatever you said, and we're not drinking kool-aid. We're simply excited about this. Don't be so proscriptive. We'll all keep paying attention and if Dean screws up or turns out to be a jerk, we'll still be watching. We're not zombies. We're just excited and galvanized by what's happening. You could be, too. Nobody's asking you to give up your reservations about the guy. It's only August 2003. We've got a LONG way to go. Chill.
