Hasn't any possible "lesson" that can be drawn from the media coverage of it been milked dry by now? There was absolutely no problem with "the scream" itself in it's actual context.

To the extent that it can be "used" against Dean currently that already is being done. It comes up when he is a candidate for something. Once Dean is DNC Chair, for example, there may be a flurry of replays for a month or so and then the media will move on to attacking him for how he is actually doing his job. The hard right may never completely let go of it, just like the hard left will never forget Bush and "My Pet Goat". But most people have moved on to looking at how well Bush is or is not doing now. The same will be true of Dean.
