As I browse the news websites and watch the cable news channels, I get the feeling that the general attitude towards Howard Dean is, "No, no! We don't want this to be over so soon!" I don't think the man has a lock on the Democratic nomination but I think a lot of newsfolks are afraid that day is imminent and that we will all soon see the Joe Liebermans and John Kerrys conceding defeat and denying reporters several months of mud-wrestling. It's way too soon to generate real interest in Dean vs. Bush so the media was counting on Dueling Democrats to sustain them. If the Michael Jackson case collapses, they don't know what they're going to do. Maybe they can get O.J. to kill someone else.
