Who will Clark hurt the most?

[VoteClark]

I personally think that this race will come down to Dean vs. Clark by January.

The Media loves a new story, and when Clark comes in, I think he will steal some of Dean's media attention. It will be really interesting.

1. I think John Kerry

because Kerry has been working to attract vets and touting his own commendable war record--having another stellar military man in the race is bound to take some of that vote from Kerry.

2. Clark, if Clark doesn't run.

If he does, probably Kerry, though he could peel off some Deanies scared on defense looking for the newest novelty candidate.

3. I have no idea nor do I care

Either he is the best candidate (in which case I hope he runs and wins) or he isn't (in which case he will lose so it won't matter). If he wants in let him in. Let him tell us what he wants to do with the country.

4. May hurt Dean the most

Both are aiming for frustrated voters looking for an outsider. Right now Dean is pulling them in across the political spectrum. Clark will give them a choice.

Big question for Clark will be how he would have voted on IWR.

6. He opposed the emergency of war with Iraq

So I would imagine he would be against it. He wanted Saddam removed but thought we should be focusing our attention on Terrorists not Saddam at this time. Saddam posed no danger to the US. North Korea and Iran now have Nuclear weapons, thanks to Bush's priority of Iraq over these issues, and Afganistan still harbors "Osama Bin Forgotten".

5. We're lucky we have so many good candidates to choose from.

Kerry, Clark, Dean, Edwards... any of those guys would be good.

7. He will hurt the obsessive/compulsive Clark supporter.

Clark is not going to throw his hat into the ring....The arena is full and he could never, ever rise above the current contenders. He has instilled false hope and demonstrates he is a weak leader.

The best he can muster will be a VP mention for the real running democratic candidate.

8. Huh?

We know you don't like Clark. Any time I read something containing the words "never, ever" I find it difficult to take the author seriously. Anything is possible.

9. I believe that he stands a good chance of showing Lieberman

the door to his electoral coffin.

Should Clark enter the race, then the field will have a more distinct definition of the term "Democratic". The field will be heavily populated with candidates that will cast a blinding contrast with the jingoistic, fossil-fueled world that Lieberman thinks we deserve.
