Dean's First Test

Many of you have contended that Howard Dean can win next year by virtue of his ability to turn out the base (combined with independents, of course; we all know the base can't win national election, I hope).

Well doesn't that position the Jan 19 caucuses as his first true test?? After all, if he can motivate large numbers of voters, won't that be visible once the results are in??

I hope they are.
