The shorter primary season may keep the quantity down, but in just the past few weeks they have made up for it in spades with the quality of their attacks on Dean. How on earth are any of these "leaders" of their party going to be able to support Dean and keep a straight face come the convention and general election. Heck, I'm not sure he can even pick his running mate from this pool anymore. Clark maybe, but he's been pretty emphatic in denying that he'd accept the #2 spot, and he's already got credibility issues. --- They've totally missed the boat on the "minimize internal bickering" plank of the plan.
