Matt Drudge is reporting that Governor Dr. Howard Brush Dean III is claiming to be a, "'committed believer in Jesus Christ." (No link yet, it's up on the main page).

He may well be (though, given what I've heard, I doubt it). But his followers sure don't. As of 7PM Pacific Time on December 24th, Blog for America lists a huge number of "X for Dean" websites, of which basically none are Christian themed (there's a 'Mormons for Dean' site and a 'Progressive Christians for Dean' site, neither of which have much content). They're outnumbered by a number of other wonderful sites including "Crushies for Dean", "Cyclists for Dean", "Foodies for Dean" and any number of other, odd sites.

The Dean campaign, to me at least, increasingly looks like a cult.
