Dean gets a new convert

King Bill is now on the train:

And Dean has one supremely important new ally who, when he goes public, will almost certainly help with donors. In late February, Dean traveled to Harlem and sat down with former President Bill Clinton, often said to be privately disparaging of Dean.

But as Dean walked Clinton through his 50-state capacity-building project, Clinton became a convert. He vowed to help Dean win the attention of donors.

Clinton should have been on board ages ago. But better late than never. Further, Clinton is a major fundraising draw and is fantastic at generating cash. This can't make the GOP very happy. They had to have been loving this schism.

Speaking of which, Clinton is apparently set to hold a major DNC fundraiser on April 10.
