From the 'it ain't over til it's over' file...

While there's talk of inevitability over at the Dean camp, there are doubts being raised around and about.

From Tom Hayden at Alternet:

"It is still possible for Dean to recover, but the assault on his frontrunner status has only begun. If Dean's not tough enough, some consultants already are saying, better to finish him off now..."

And the LA Times' Ronald Brownstein:

"A senior strategist for one of Dean's rivals said that by aligning behind Dean, the SEIU and AFSCME are repeating the mistake that an array of labor leaders made in 1984, when they helped power former Vice President Walter Mondale to the Democratic nomination — only to see him crushed by President Reagan in the general election. "I know from having traveled in the South and Southwest you are going to end up with a candidate [in Dean] who is virtually unelectable in the general election," the strategist insisted."

And the New York Times Adam Nagourney:

"Given the size of the field, Dr. Dean's lack of experience in national politics and his tendency for intemperate remarks, his success at navigating the very early months of the Democratic nomination battle hardly means he is assured of being nominated in Boston next July."

The questions keep coming faster than the answers. What's up, Doc?
