Howard: John, Paul, George or Ringo?

I'm a big Beatles fan and even collect a little bit but this is just the oddest Beatles analogy I've ever read. It's a quote by Joe Trippi from today's Washington Post:

He said he no longer speaks with Dean, now chairman of the Democratic National Committee. The two had a falling out in the final months of Dean's campaign over tactics and style and have crossed paths only once since Dean dropped out of the race. "I have a healthy understanding for why the Beatles did not get back together," Trippi said. "We may have been the political Beatles."

Sounds to me like Joe's having a Pete Best moment.
