This week in CP: the Democrats versus Howard Dean

Tomorrow--or later today, if you're a City Pages newsletter subscriber--citypages.com will be posting this week's cover story about Howard Dean and his futile quest to point the Democratic party in a new direction. Meantime, despite the many efforts of his own party to shut Dean up, the DNC chairman is still giving Republicans hell and Democrats fits. Last night he spoke at a Boston fundraiser (Boston Globe, Boston Herald).

Best GOP diss of the night: "They say they want small government, but their government is just big enough to fit inside Terri Schiavo's bed in the nursing home."
