Clark not a Republican was leaked by Bushistas
I made this post in another thread that died. This allegation is important but it is in a Fineman article so who knows.


According to Newsweek in a long story on chimp's re-election strategy.


WORRIED BY WESLEY?
Clark may pose a special danger to the commander in chief: a battle-tested general with his own, internationalist theory for fighting terrorism and experience deploying it. Bush insiders won’t talk about Clark for the record, but the decibels rise in private. They cite Pentagon scuttlebutt that the general is too hard-charging and manipulative to wear well for long. “He is a little too tightly wrapped,” said one adviser. GOP operatives unearthed and released a two-year-old video in which the general lavishly praises the early leadership of President Bush and his administration. Still, the general’s commando raid of a campaign is showing signs of taking hold. Unschooled in domestic matters (though he is being tutored by teams of former Clinton administration experts), he has inched ahead in his role as front runner among Democrats, with 16 percent support, compared with 12 percent for his closest rival, Dean.


It's about a page down.

5. I'm reporting what the article said....Not trying to start a
flame war since I think it does all of us a disservice. I want to know about the candidates and which rumors come from the Bushistas. I want the dems to win and to know what we will be up against in the General whichever Dem wins the primary.

LOL I'm such an O8) -- not.
