Frontrunner?

This story relates little that Dean Nationals haven't heard Dean say before, but the thing that srtruck me was the headline:
Bush challenger Dean makes his case to local Democrats

Taking aim at President Bush, former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean yesterday declared himself a centrist who cares about traditional Democratic values.

"We need to stand up to the president and be proud of being Democrats," he told a gathering of about 200 at a fund-raiser in Cleveland Heights yesterday. "The way to beat George Bush is not to be like him, it's to give the 50 percent of Americans the reason to vote again," he said to the group braving a light rain as they stood in the back yard of lawyers Joel and Mary Jane Levin.
Let's hope these sorts of headlines continue. A few months ago he was a Democratic Contender or he was a Dark Horse but now Dean is a Bush Challenger! Guess we're doing something right. Anyone for Dragon Slayer?

Am I missing something here?

Like perhaps most readers of this site, I'm not a fan of the Bush Administration. 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
