Clark/Dean Supporters Check-In
Who thinks the ticket with Clark on top, and Dean as VP would give us an 80+% chance of victory, a not-too-old Dean in 2012, and a combination that utilized the strengths of both, while ameliorating the weaknesses of each?

Those who put this ticket on top of their list, check-in.

4. I'm open..............
to Clark/Dean..Dean/Clark, it makes no difference to me. This, in my opinion, is the only combination that has a remote chance at getting the crazy cowboy out of Washington.

5. Clark/Dean would cause a collective bowel movement
among repukes. They would be hysterical and quite honestly, there would probably be an assassination attempt upon one or both of them. That would rub the righties the wrongest way.

7. i don't want to see Clark on the ticket at all
imho he's a war criminal, a product of the military-industrial complex, and a democrat-of-convenience-only.

Dean doesn't have any serious weaknesses, he doesn't need Clark.

Clark does have serious weaknesses, chief among them being his lack of experience in civilian politics.

Clark on top makes no sense to me. a Clark/Dean ticket would make about as much sense as a Lieberman/Gore ticket.

8. I'm with you.
Pulling the lever for Clark would be every bit as difficult for me as pulling the lever for Lieberman or the idiot. I know several Dems who will vote third party or write in a candidate if Clark is in the top slot on the ticket.

11. As a Dean supporter, I could support it.
I would (obviously) prefer a 'Dean/Clark' ticket, but my personal disappointment at seeing Gov. Dean in the VP slot would in no way diminish my enthusiasm and support for a 'Clark/Dean' ticket.

:hi:
