Dean gainiing momentum…
[Dean has got the big mo. going. He’s definitely put himself in the position of a national contender. To me, this demonstrates what a good message and good campaign management can do for you… the others ain’t got jack in that dept. They’re doing 20th century politics in a 21st century world. You gotta wonder when they’ll wake up and get that… just putting up a blog doesn’t do it, either. -Thomas]

PRINCETON, NJ — Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean has gained 10 points in the Democratic horse race over the last two months, and is now tied for second among the list of nine Democratic contenders for their party’s presidential nomination. Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman — well-known from his position as Al Gore’s vice-presidential running mate in the 2000 election — maintains a slight lead over Dean and Missouri Congressman Dick Gephardt. At the same time, the new Gallup Poll shows no sign of further deterioration in President George Bush’s position in the eyes of the public; his job approval rating is steady at 60%.
