[Clark Can WIN]

6. I bet Rove is changing his underwear about now...

and Bush also. HAAAAA!!!!!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. I Can't Wait To See The First In His Class War Hero Debate

the Gentleman C AWOL Bush...

[Kahuna]

68. Yeah. How would you like to run against a smart, articulate..

heroic, handsome, sharp-witted candidate who actually caught his tyrant?

[CWebster]

7. This is a surprise?

it would have been unexpected had he declined.

[seemslikeadream]

9. I figured so a couple of minutes ago

when I heard a rumor on C-SPAN about a newspaper person quiting his job to go to Little Rock.

[Brucey]

10. Best of luck to Clark

and let's hope this keeps the momentum going for the Dems.

[cmd]

11. All Right !!!!!!!!!!

It's time for some serious action, WesWingers.

[Clark Can WIN]

56. That's Right Coalminersdaughter!

Time for us to crank up our donations, time and spread the enthusiasm into our local communities!

[flpoljunkie]

12. It seems unseemly to step on Edwards' Official Announcement this way...

I am surprised that Clark would do this.

Surely he and his advisors are aware of Edwards' Official Announcement commencing at this very moment!

:dem:

[DemocratSinceBirth]

15. He's Making His Official Announcement Tomorrow

I like John Edwards but Wes Clark has a better shot...

[Capn Sunshine]

43. I'll believe it when I see it

This Kibuki theater out of Little Rock is really annoying.
what's todays buzz, he's having a meeting to announce an announcement?

[Clark Can WIN]

61. No more annoying

Than those continuously complain about it. Seriously, I want to know why it upsets you so much? Most of the people who vote for Clark, Dean or anyone else in the primaries won't even be aware of this little drama, so why let yourself get so stewed?

[CWebster]

16. Wow

How could he not know that? Sure is starting off on the wrong foot.

[Nashyra]

17. He'ssssssssssssssssss running

CNN announced ahortly before 7:30 PST

[Brian Sweat]

18. He has to announce sometime this week.

Edwards knew that Clark was going to anounce this week.

[DoveTurnedHawk]

20. Leaks Happen

I can't imagine Clark would plan it that way; he's got too much class for that, and besides, he would want to pull Edwards supporters as much as anyone.

DTH

[charlie]

23. Nevermind...

...misread something

[DoveTurnedHawk]

26. OK

:-)

DTH

[elfin]

24. I agree - to a point

The fact that it came out early isn't surprising, given the wiles and ways of a press eager to be "first."

We will see if Clark himself gives any interviews on this today.

I like Edwards alot, but the fact that the news that Clark will announce is sucking the air out his own announcement is very telling of Clark's strength.

I wish Edwards hadn't said he wasn't standing for the senate seat.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

28. I Think Clark-Edwards Would Be A Fantastic Ticket

With a little seasoning Edwards can have the Clinton mojo....

[DemPopulist]

34. Heh

Not going to happen now }(

[DemocratSinceBirth]

41. Let's Be Friends....

I want to beat Bush for stealing the election from that fine man on your avatar....

I met Al and Tipper... They are truly good people...

[DoveTurnedHawk]

35. I Was Thinking That Too

How about 4 straight terms for the Dems?

Clark-Edwards
Clark-Graham
Clark-Landrieu
Clark-Dean

DTH

[DemocratSinceBirth]

47. Clark-Kerry

and Clark-Gephardt Work too...

[WhoCountsTheVotes]

60. Clark/Gephardt, Clark/Edwards, Clark/Moseley-Braun, Clark/Kucinich!

Kucinich maybe a long shot, but Clark needs some economic progressive credentials to win the primary and get out the vote in the general election.

Kerry should stay in the Senate, we need him there, he's a great Senator. Too bad about Edwards ruling it out, unless he knows he'll be picked as Clark's VP.

My pragmatism says Clark/Edwards is a winner.

[Mike_from_NoVa]

64. Clark/Richardson

wait and see

[Kahuna]

71. That would be the ultimate ticket.

But Richardson has ruled himself out.

[rucky]

83. Ain't gonna happen

...he just took office, and doing great for New Mexico as governor.

[Kahuna]

70. Gep would actually be a good choice for a running mate..

Gep is polling higher than the other candidates in a one on one against bush. In other words, Gep seems to be more acceptable to replace bush with more Americans.

[WhoCountsTheVotes]

80. Gephardt is an economic populist

Clark/Gephardt would be great, I'd LOVE to vote for that ticket!

[JasonBerry]

33. Edwards

I wish Edwards hadn't said he wasn't standing for the senate seat.

I'm liking Edwards more as a candidate - he's doing a good job. However, polls clearly were showing Edwards was not going to be re-elected to the Senate.

[Clark Can WIN]

63. I wish Edwards had not given up his seat too

He can't go back on that now and I think he made a big mistake in doing so. He's a good man, perhaps in the future he'll make it to the nom, but not this go round.

[chimpymustgo]

40. I agree. It's ungentlemanly. I'm very surprised Clark would do this.

Very disappointing, becuase I like Clark - and would like to see an Edwards/Clark ticket.

[Clark Can WIN]

65. Before you pass judgement

Perhaps you should wait to see if the Edwards camp is even upset by this. I doubt too much that they are. I wonder about the wisdom of Edwards announcing today in his homestate with a big ass hurricane headed straight at it anyway. Also, he has been campaigning for NINE MONTHS! If you believe Clarks announcement hurts Edwards that badly then you must believe that Edwards is very fragile. I don't think Clarks announcement will affect Edwards any more or any less than the other candidates. I don't think it was Clarks intention for a second to upstage Edwards. Clark is trying to upstage Isabel and get ready for campaigning in Iowa.

edit for sp

[oasis]

78. right,the hurricane will be top news for the remainder of the week.

the California recall can't be milked much longer.

[papau]

74. The US GOP controlled media is into "abrasive and controlling persion"

Same as they are throwing at Dean - and Kerry.

So I guess these are the folks the GOP fear the most.

While he has no experience with domestic policy, he is articulate and seems to have some good ideas and comes across confident

Now Edwards and Kerry have a bundle of good ideas, as do the others, so I am not certain good ideas get you very far, or break you out from the pack.

Ex-Gen. Wesley Clark to Seek White House

By RON FOURNIER
AP Political Writer


LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) -- Wesley Clark, the retired general with a four-star military resume but no political experience, decided Tuesday to become the 10th Democratic presidential candidate, officials close to him said.

"He's made his decision and will announce it tomorrow in Little Rock," said Mark Fabiani, a spokesman for Clark. Fabiani did not reveal Clark's decision, but officials close to the former general said he told his fledgling campaign team that he's in the race.

[seemslikeadream]

25. Part of that team seems to include

a newspaper person who's quit his or her job and a law partner of one of Kerry's guys who just left him

[Terwilliger]

19. developing??

I say we call for a ban on new Clark posts for two weeks, since there were so many hundreds of threads started and he wasn't even running

[graham67]

21. Oh come on....

:eyes:

[Terwilliger]

36. oh come on is right! Al Gore didn't engender this kind of sycophantic

DRIVEL!

If you like Clark that much then you must like Joe Lieberman too.

[Joe the Revelator]

39. Wow...

thats a huge leap of faith.


i know! lets nominate Nader, lose 49 states, and spend 4 more years sending my friends off to war. YAY!!!

[Terwilliger]

49. the war your Democrats endorsed?

maybe you should look in the mirror

Did the DLC make sure every vote was counted in Florida? Lemme guess! You're a white person!

[Joe the Revelator]

52. which was a postion...

that your green friends put us in, in the first place

[Terwilliger]

57. sorry, that's inaccurate...and doesnt excuse it

nor the Patriot Act...nor confirming John AssKKKroft...etc. etc. etc.

[Julien Sorel]

76. Only 49? What state would Nadir carry? Neverland isn't

a state!

[Capn Sunshine]

22. I'm waiting for the anouncement

that he's decided to make an announcement.

But first, this announcement

[DoveTurnedHawk]

27. You're Going to Have to Find a New Meme to Push, Tomorrow

But I'm not even going to let you rile me, today. I'm too happy!

:bounce:

DTH

[DemPopulist]

29. Great

Another "savior" candidate forced down our throats... :eyes:

(I don't dislike Clark, by the way, I'm just not crazy about the hype)

[onecitizen]

30. I actually had this..........

before you dude but I didn't have all those ((()))) around mine. Hmmm. Oh well, good news nonetheless!

[DoveTurnedHawk]

31. It's All About Marketing

In this day and age, anyway! :-)

DTH

[Terwilliger]

37. you mean its all about being fake?

ok...gotcha

[DoveTurnedHawk]

42. Oh Please

Don't try and pick a fight with me today of all days, Ter, it's not going to happen! :-)

We're talking about posting style, fer the luvva Pete!

DTH

[Terwilliger]

50. Clark posts are fake?

you should inform people of that

[DoveTurnedHawk]

51. Big Breaking News Is Big Breaking News

Or perhaps you haven't heard? :-)

Peace,
DTH

[JasonBerry]

53. He Was Talking About His POST!

He was talking about the (((( ))))) in his post on the breaking news. The other guy said he had it first, but that he didn't have all the ((())) around his subject heading....DTH was just kidding around saying it's all about marketing. Meaning, the ((())).....

[DoveTurnedHawk]

55. Thanks for Sticking Up for Me, Jason

And the funny thing is, it wasn't even my post to begin with! :-)

DTH

[onecitizen]

59. Hey! I knew what you meant DTH!!!

it was about the (((())))) !! Everyone needs to get a grip!!

[Terwilliger]

62. you should have a grip...look at all those parends!

You could lock up like an alligator with those!

[onecitizen]

67. hehehe..........

yeah I DO need to get a grip! I'm all worked up for some reason. Too much news stimuli today I guess.

[Terwilliger]

58. who are you talking to?

you should check it when you click reply

[Kahuna]

72. Your wailing and gnashing of teeth is starting a day early..

isn't it? }(

I'm going to enjoy tomorrow. :evilgrin:

[onecitizen]

48. hehehe......

yeah you're right. Cut-throat business though!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

38. I'm Sorry

I used to have a "buddy" on a Miami Dolphins board who used to use the (((((( ))))) for emphasis..


For instance, George Bush is ((((( fill in the blank)))))) loser...

[onecitizen]

82. Actually I was just kiddin'.......

'round! I don't care DSB. I just was glad to hear the news!! It IS very effective though. Think I'll use it next time!!! Dolphins fan??

[seemslikeadream]

44. I had this at 9:13

but I was being coy. To afraid to stick my neck out.

[Woodstock]

32. I'm glad he did - we have a very strong field of candidates

and the more attention they get - and their message gets - the better.

This should pull the media attention away from the CA recall for a while and put it back where it belongs - hearing the Dems bashing Bush.

[opstachuck]

45. Damnit! The only reason I was hoping that he wouldn't run...

is so that I wouldn't have to choose between him and Dean. This is great for the dems and america, the world, universe, whatever, but fuck I'm confused. i guess it's a nice position to be in, for once. well, he's got my support Monday, Wednesday, Friday and every other Saturday. the other days go to dean. i hope this doesn't turn me into a schizo.

[Clark Can WIN]

73. Come into the light opstchuck..............

come into the light.............. and have a clark bar on us, compliments of the Wes Wing.

[opstachuck]

79. mommy told me not to take candy from strangers...

looks mighty tasty though.

[bitchkitty]

46. Another strong candidate -

it just keeps getting better and better!

[theboss]

66. Good news

The race just suddenly got very interesting and that can only help all the Dems.

As for Edwards. . . . does anyone give a good goddamn when or where someone declares. I mean, if you show up for a debate, haven't you "declared."

Some combination of an Edwards/Clark or Clark/Edwards ticket would scare the hell out of the Bushes. It would cut into their two main strengths - the South and the military.

[meti57b]

69. DEAN/CLARK, CLARK/DEAN, DEAN/CLARK. CLARK/DEAN!!!!!!!!

either way is good!

[underpants]

75. Finally the Kerry/Clark ticket is in place

You do want to win the White House, don't you?

[DemExpat]

77. I am thrilled at the news. Wes for Pres!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

This feels good, this feels happy!
