[Carol Costello, Cnn Anchor:] Today's Wisconsin primary may be as much about who loses as who wins. If front runner John Kerry grabs his 16th primary season win, the pressure may be on Howard Dean to quit. CNN's Kelly Wallace is in Milwaukee.
[Kelly Wallace, Cnn Correspondent:] Will he stay or will he go? Howard Dean gives a very Dean-like response.
[Dr. Howard Dean , Presidential Candidate:] I think it is possible for us to win and I think it's possible for us to do well if we don't win.
[Wallace:] But there are signs smaller crowds, a national chairman who's already left and a candidate saying nice things in Sunday's debate about front running John Kerry after attacking him just a few days ago.
[Unidentified Male:] What happened to the tone? You've almost over moderated it. Have you figured out where it's headed yet?
[Dean:] Sure. We're going to change this country one way or the other.
[Wallace:] Dean and Kerry chatted briefly at the debate. A senior Kerry adviser said if Dean decides to leave the race, Kerry would try to get him and his grassroots thousands strong organization on board as quickly as possible. For now, Kerry's goal trying to score his 16th victory.
[Sen. Ted Kennedy , Massachusetts:] Hello, Green Bay! Now, are you glad to see old Kennedy? Are you glad I'm back out here?
[Wallace:] Forty-four years after his brother, President John F. Kennedy, pulled off an upset here, Senator Ted Kennedy asked the state to deliver a victory for another senator from Massachusetts.
[Kennedy:] Do for him what you did for my brother. He'll be a great president.
[Wallace:] But the endorsement of the state's largest newspaper was delivered not to John Kerry, but to Senator John Edwards of North Carolina, who took Kerry on in Sunday's debate and plans to keep it up.
[Sen. John Edwards , Presidential Candidate:] I think as the race is narrowing to two people that it will be clearer what the differences are between us.
[Wallace:] In an ironic twist, Edwards is also reminding voters of the Kennedy upset, asking people in Wisconsin to do for him what they did for John Kennedy in 1960 and an adviser to John Edwards telling CNN that the senator will remain in this race no matter what happens on Tuesday.
