Howard Dean's big endorsements

[StevenNick]

I think Bradley's endorsement helps Dean a little in the sense that it adds to a chorus of other endorsements from big name democrats and gives the (mistaken) impression that Dean is electable.

Now Howie's got Harkin.  That probably secures Iowa for Dean.  I can't imagine that Gephardt will be able to come back now.  Polls were already showing him between five and ten points behind Dean.  Now, with Harkin throwing his support behind Dean, Gephardt doesn't have a chance.
