What goes up . . .

. . . must go down. At least, for Howard Dean. He has now fired his second campaign manager in a few weeks, and his staffers are apparently ready to roll after Wisconsin. What's going on here? Here's what the Post says:

The root of the confusion, say some people who have spoken to Dean in recent days, is the understandable human emotion of a man who two months ago believed -- and was being told by campaign strategists and newsmagazine covers alike -- that he was virtually certain to become the Democratic nominee and stood as good a chance as anyone of becoming president. (emphasis most assuredly added)

The lesson---never believe Time and Newsweek.
