GOP takes on Clark
Reciprocation seems in order

Last month, this column predicted that the GOP response to retired Gen. Wesley Clark’s presidential candidacy would be to turn him into the Democratic equivalent of Gen. Jack D. Ripper, the megalomaniacal crackpot in the classic film "Dr. Strangelove."
