I caught most of Dean's town meeting in Iowa on C-span today (I'm sure you can find it online if you hunt for it). He showed his strengths there I thought - not ducking questions, answering forcefully, bashing Bush without getting caught in the trap of only bashing Bush. He was pragmatic yet managed to communicate some idealism too. It was nice to see Tom Harkin up there with him - was always a fan of his, though he sorta disappeared throughout most of the Clinton years.
