ROCKER JOAN JETT A HOWARD DEAN DELEGATE:


ALBANY, N.Y. - Does Howard Dean love rock 'n' roll? He'd better or he may hear from one of his potential national convention delegates.

A slate of convention delegate candidates from New York made public by the Dean presidential campaign includes Joan Jett, whose 1981 song with the Blackhearts "I Love Rock-n-Roll" has become a rock anthem.

"This whole process intrigues me," Jett said. "I'm stepping into new territory. It's very exciting."

If she is elected during New York's March 2 presidential primary, Jett would go to the Democratic National Convention next summer as a Dean delegate.

Jett, 43, said she agrees with Dean's stance against the war in Iraq, though she is a champion of members of the U.S. military.
