I believe this says it all...

Kennedy: Dean's hot, Kerry's the one
The Boston Herald - by, Noelle Straub and Andrew Miga - August 29, 2003

WASHINGTON - Howard Dean is connecting with voters in his bid for the White House, but John Kerry will surge in the fall, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy predicted yesterday.

"There is no question that Howard Dean has tapped into an energy in the country which is enormously important and which he deserves credit for,'' Kennedy said in an interview with the Herald.

Noting that Dean appeals to voters concerned about President Bush's handling of both foreign and domestic policy, Kennedy added, ``I think that's been a very effective campaign.''

But Kennedy, who has endorsed his fellow Bay State senator, predicted that as the campaign season picks up after Labor Day and the public begins to pay more attention to the race, Kerry "will be in the strongest position.

"I think he's best able to lead,'' Kennedy said. ``I don't think there's any candidate that is better qualified than John Kerry. I think that kind of experience and quality and leadership will best be reflected in the time during the fall when individuals are finally making up their mind.''
