Dean's Boat Anchor

And speaking of correlations, the other chart I want to see is Dean's numbers correlated with the level of involvement that Al Gore has had in his campaign.

I don't have the data, but I suspect Dean peaked right around the time that Gore endorsed him and its been downhill since, culminating in the firing of the mastermind of Dean's brilliant Internet-based strategy Joe Trippi and the replacement of him with Gore's bore, Roy Neel.

Josh Marshall sums up my feelings about all of this.
