71. DK has never DENIED that he wasn't anti-choice, and explained why
...he changed his position over the last few years. He has also backed up this change with his votes in congress and his pledge to not appoint judges who don't support Roe v. Wade.

Dean, OTOH, pledged to abide by campaign finance laws if the other Democrats did the same, and would HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE if they did. So far, no other Democrats have said they would not abide by the matching funds provision-- except for one. Howard Dean.

The question is, will he hold himself accountable? Or is this merely another "triangulation" that can be explained away, like his stance on NAFTA, the Social Security retirement age, Medicare, the Iraq War, and the rest of the issues he's "modulated" his position on since he started campaigning?
