15. I suspect that Dean WAS a prick to MM

remember, at the time, Dean was ALREADY (a little too prematurely)
running as if he was the Democratic candidate. I'm sure he thought
that Moore would be a little to antagonistic to the center dems and
independents, not to mention the bad publicity from the RW media
that a Moore association and/or endorsement would bring. So he didn't
need Moore, and didn't want Moore to be the "king maker" in the
democratic race... plus I'm sure that the Clinton's were already
pushing Moore toward Clark, even if Clark wasn't announced as a
candidate yet.

So, Dean could afford to be a bit of a prick to Michael, or at least
thought that he could, and maybe SHOULD.
