One time Vermont Governor and front running Presidential candidate, Howard Dean now finds himself leading the Democratic National Committee. Since there, he's made some big waves and big bucks for the DNC. At a time where there is much talk about reform in the Democratic Party, when the Bush Administration is finding some of its lowest approval ratings and a highly contested '06 mid-term election is just around the corner, some say Howard Dean is at the right position at the right time, others worry he's not.

Laura's guests are Dante Scala, Associate Professor of Politics at Saint Anselm College and author of "Stormy Weather: The New Hampshire Primary and Presidential Politics, Ken Rudin, NPR's Political Reporter.
