DescriptionHoward Dean is the It candidate of the moment. From Rolling Stone to Modern Physician magazine, everybody wants a piece of the 2004 Democratic presidential contender.

Aboard the "Grass Roots Express," the chartered jet ferrying him coast to coast on a late summer political swing, the doctor and former governor of Vermont found himself squeezed in a center seat discussing Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young with a reporter on his left and medical malpractice caps with a correspondent on his right.

German television, The New Yorker magazine and CBS' "60 Minutes II" vied for face time with the one Democratic contender to create early buzz with a sense of momentum almost five months before the first contests on the road to the White House.

Dean was the flavor of the week as his "Sleepless Summer" tour stopped in Chicago on Tuesday en route to a big late-night finish in New York City and no one seemed more surprised than Dean himself.

"Holy cow!" were the first two words out of his mouth at a rally in Seattle that drew an estimated 10,000 people. It was his fifth stop on a 10-city marathon dreamed up by his young staff.
