CNN Article on Declaration Celebrations

Also scheduled to speak on Dean's behalf are Vermont Sens. Patrick Leahy, a Democrat and key ally for primary voters following the Senate battle over Bush judicial nominees, and independent Jim Jeffords, a potential siren for swing voters.

In a conference call with reporters Thursday, Dean campaign manager Joe Trippi said the candidate wants to yank control of the campaign's message back from critics "who have been trying paint us into one corner as either just an anti-war candidate or you name the flavor. ....

Dean is scheduled to speak at 1 p.m. EDT. C-Span 2 will be carrying it live.

Last year I devoted a goodly portion of my life to ousting it, including a trip to freezing cold Cedar Rapids and Waterloo, Iowa, where I canvassed for the Dean Campaign in the runup to the caucuses. I admit that I lost faith in the Dean movement after that, and I floundered around a bit in trying to figure out who to support, eventually setting upon Johnny Sunshine Edwards (or was it Clark?). I have never been a big fan of John Kerry, to say the least. It's tempting to fall into cynical sniping, which I myself have done at times. But I find it dispiriting and ultimately corro
