That he will get the endorsement from AFSCME. It's supposedly a done deal. I give a lot of credit to Trippi's aggressive strategy to raise money and profile early. But I still dont understand what Howard Dean has done to earn union endorsements (especially versus some of the other candidates).
Oh well. Good for the dean camp. Congratulations.
It will be a bigger hill to climb for the rest of us.

| -Is Dean getting both the SEIU and the AFSCME ? |
