Dean Goes From First to Worst...
After a borrowing enough money to get a bumpy plane ride on
Jetblue, former Vermont Governor
Howard Dean withdrew his bid for the Democratic nomination of President.
Dean, who was the front runner for much of 2003, was a surprising third in the Iowa caucus and never recovered. Soon after Dean went on a Mondale-esque losing streak, losing all 18 states and the crucial endorsements of union heads and former 90s rap star Sir-Mix-a-Lot.
While many will speculate on where Dean went wrong, many agree that it was the
endorsement of former VP Al Gore.
"It was when everything started going wrong," said one Dean spokesman of the Gore endorsement. "We should've taken into account that no one likes him."
