Kerry scores 2 more wins in caucuses - Newsday.com While his 3-1 victory in Michigan and nearly 20-point margin of victory in Washington bolstered his claim that he is the strongest Democrat to face President Bush in November, the day brought a potentially crippling blow to Howard Dean, who only a month ago was the presumed front-runner.

Richard Gephardt, who dropped out of the race after a poor showing in the Iowa caucuses. Michigan had been billed as a major battleground state for the nomination, but the unexpected exit of Gephardt and the collapse of the Dean campaign sapped interest in the caucuses. www.newsday.com /chi-0402080259feb08,0,5438719.story   (736 words)
