We’ll see what happens, of course. There was a lot of buzz about the Deaniacs that ended-up looking stupid in Iowa even before Dean’s head exploded (indeed, his head exploded because the Deaniacs dropped the ball and he was trying to cheer them up).

But, as it stands now, I think the Kossacks et al. should be congratulated in the limited sense that they are accomplishing what they set out to do. I think it’s sadness and folly for the Democrats and the country, but grant them their success — so far.
