I don't normally like to describe anyone as "a class act."

But I can't think of anything better than that for Howard Dean, after reading this statement. Seriously:

Dean: “…Look, John McCain is a flawed candidate. Here’s a guy who is a typical situational ethicist, he runs on his integrity, but he doesn’t seem to have any. We’re familiar with the fact that he got on the ballot in Ohio with what now turns out to be false pretenses. He qualified because he was taking public financing, and now he says he’s not going to. He doesn’t have the permission of the FEC to do that, and just this week he refused to denounce and reject John Hagee, a militant, anti-Catholic right wing pastor and John McCain has a history of doing what it takes regardless of what the ethics of this are. I think he’s going to be a flawed candidate, I don’t think people want four more years of what is essentially four more years of George Bush.”

Sock it towards them, Howard baby...
