The campaign has also ramped up staff sizes in Iowa and New Hampshire, and unlike most campaigns, the candidate is flying on a chartered plane. As for the burn rate, Campaign Manager Joe Trippi said he was not worried. However, he also pointed out the campaign would qualify for at least $19 million in matching funds should they go that route.

realizes: Dean is the emerging the Champion "All year, Howard Dean has been gaining ground in the Democratic presidential race. And all year, Democratic centrists have been scrambling for a candidate to stop him. He's too liberal, they said. He's soft on defense, a Vermont lefty, an evangelist for expansive programs. To stop him, they turned to Joe Lieberman, then John Kerry, then Wes Clark. But the more Dean's rivals expose his record, the more I suspect that the centrist who's going to spare Democrats this left-wing nightmare isn't any of these guys. It's Howard Dean. . ." |
