WASHINGTON -- Activist Simon Rosenberg abandoned his bid for Democratic National Committee chairman on Friday and backed front-runner Howard Dean, moving the former presidential candidate closer to capturing the party title.

Rosenberg's departure from the race leaves a field of three - Dean; Democratic activist Donnie Fowler, who ran the Kerry-Edwards campaign in Michigan, and former Indiana Rep. Tim Roemer.

About 430 voting members of the party's national committee will choose a successor to outgoing DNC Chairman Terry McAuliffe on Feb. 12.

In endorsing Dean, Rosenberg said, ``While we have not always agreed on every issue, I believe his passion for our party, his remarkable fighting spirit, his direct and powerful way of speaking, and his commitment to bringing regular people back into our party will allow him to revitalize our party and help us win again in the 21st century.''
