Howard Dean to End His Campaign
WASHINGTON (AP) - Howard Dean will end his campaign for the presidential nomination and oversee a new effort to keep his issues alive and his supporters organized on behalf of Democratic causes, two party officials said Wednesday.Dean was to announce his plans at a news conference Wednesday afternoon, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The sources said the shape of the new effort is still to be determined but that Dean would eventually support the Democratic Party's nominee. One official said Dean would help elect Democrats to Congress in the fall.
Dean was mulling whether to endorse one of his rivals. John Edwards has been reaching out to Dean for several weeks, and the former Vermont governor has been impressed with the North Carolina senator and grateful that he has not criticized Dean, the officials said.
Still, the officials cautioned, the chance for endorsement remained slim.
While on the face of it, this seems like good news because, it will nevertheless be harder for Bush to gain a victory in this year's election than it would be if he were running against Dean.
But, on the other hand, I am happy that Dean's fascism and anti-Americanism will not have the chance of gaining a hold on Washington D.C.:

Good riddance.
