I love Wesley Clark, but sometimes I wonder if he's got the desire to seek
the Presidency. I know the saying that good men don't seek power but it is thrusted upon them, at the same time you don't win the presidency unless you've got the fire to really do whatever it takes to win. I don't get the second feeling from Clark, he holding back some.

I'll vote for him in the Primaries because I think he's the best man for he job. He's intelligent, I like what he has to say on foreign and domestric policies, but I won't be surprised if he doesn't get far in 2008 (granted he decides to run again).

Maybe the General just doesn't want the job as bad as the others, it could be a sign of self-respect. For a military guy, running for office has probably involved far more begging than he can tolerate.

1. I don't think he's holding back.
I think the media is simply ignoring some of his fierier speeches.
