Don't you read Powerline? Dems hate vets, ergo Clark hates himself. You can't trust a man who hates himself. He's probably a closet flip-flopper

I agree. I loved Clark. I just think he was a little shell shocked by the whole process, at first: he looked a little nervous and awkward at times. I think with a little political grooming, and the experience from 2004 in his hopper, he could be a great candidate. He is affable, intelligent, and trustworthy--reminds me a little of J. McCain.
Do you think we'd be in this mess if McCain were president? Would there be the same animosity? Interesting to think about.

, atMcCain would be better than Bush. Is that really the standard? I think Rs wouldn't vote for McCain in the primary simply becuase Dems think he would be better than Bush.
I used to have at least a grudging respect for McCain but after his actions in the 2004 race he's got a long way to go before he reaches that state again.
I too was an early Clark supporter and am excited to see him back in the limelight. Monostereo is correct, a little grooming and he could be back for 2008. I would certainly be more likely to support him than give Kerry another chance.
As to the question of us being in this mess if McCain were president, I am giving McCain a thumbs up. If he had won in 2000, he certainly wouldn't have gone into Iraq, would have been fiscally conservative, and worked better with the opposition. But I am grateful for Dubya now. Because by the time he, Frist, and Delay are out of office the neo-cons and the fundies will be considered so repulsive and toxic they'll be spending another 30 years in the wilderness.
