I think it has a lot to do with feeling threatened, but that's human nature.

Before Clark announced, to most people Dean was the front-runner. I think he and his supporters feel threatened by Clark's initial success and media attention.

But please understand, that is only natural. Dean and his camp have put in a tremendous amount of effort up to this point and have had fundraising success that Dems would have never thought possible even 12 months ago. It would be perfectly acceptable to be a little aggravated at Clark's perceived easy rise to among the top candidates.
