Do Dean's supporters need to be de-programmed? With Moonie-like fervor, they are continuing their fight for their sacred leader and their noble cause. But already some are becoming disenchanted, like former cult members finally coming to their senses. Others seem determined to drink the electoral Kool-Aid of the faltering Dean campaign. If this keeps up, the rest of the Democratic party may need to call in the likes of Rick Ross, expert cult watcher. In the meantime, the Dean acolytes will be making their last stand in Wisconsin -- as if even a win there will somehow spark a turnaround that will carry him to victory.
They might as well wait for the Hale-Bopp comet -- which so inspired the "Heaven's Gate" cult -- to come and take them away to triumph at the convention.
