WELL: One of Jonah Goldberg's 2004 predictions:

"Bill Clinton is caught saying something disparaging about Howard Dean or Al Gore — or both — "by accident" as a way to signal his displeasure at the Dean boomlet without "officially" interfering in the race."

It won't happen, because Bill Clinton is way smarter than that. Don't be surprised to see his people within the party refuse to work for Dean, or not do very much if they have to work for him. If you go against the nominee, you become sour-grapes-guy, rather than the fearless defender of the real Democratic Party, which is clearly what Clinton wants to be.
