Clark reconsidering??

[economic justice]

I am shocked to learn that Clark is not giving any interviews tonight and has cancelled two long-standing plans to appear on two shows tonight. What's up?

[Jack_Dawson]

1. Stop. He is on a plane.

Don't even go there.

[arewethereyet]

8. that would explain WHY he cannot appear

now how about why he is on a plane if he was expected elsewhere ?

[economic justice]

10. Go where?

I'm just curious as to what he's thinking. Aren't YOU? You don't turn down free airtime on primary night without a REALLY good reason.

[Hoppin_Mad]

15. Hmm - Another Clark supporter said he's in NH

Rowdyboy just wrote :


They just mentioned that Clark and family are in their hotel room


in NEW HAMPSHIRE waiting to come down and speak to the crowd. Earlier Faux was circulating lies that Clark had already left the state headed for SC.

[Jerseycoa]

26. He was supposed to go to SC

Then weather scotched the event down there.

[Phelan]

29. Was going to be awesome

We handed out something close to 3,000 free tickets to itself between 5 or so volunteers from bama. So if everyone else carried their end of the bargain that event would have been one hell of a success

[leyton]

2. He certainly won't drop out.

He has no reason to - he can definitely hold on till Feb 3, probably longer. He and Edwards should be looking forward to next week, when they will be on (almost) home turf.

3. Where did you hear this???

It does indeed sound as if something is up...

[economic justice]

7. Canceled Larry King and Nightline <eom>

[Joe the Revelator]

11. Where did you hear that he canceled?

I've been watching cnn all night and i havn't heard that.

[Kathleen04]

12. Larry King didn't

say that he cancelled, he said that Clark isn't taking interviews tonight.

[Democrats unite]

14. He did not cancel

He declined to appear.

[economic justice]

WRONG

He was SCHEDULED for Larry King Live.

[arewethereyet]

4. you see what it did for Dr Dean in Iowa, why risk it ?

n/t

[Joe the Revelator]

5. Link? nt

[aquart]

6. Can't handle the heat?

Remember, he's military. The guys on top make the decisions and tell the guys on bottom what they are. This is a complete reversal of that. Buck privates making decisions for generals?

It's just hard to take.

[tishaLA]

9. He's not going on King with Dole

and I don't blame him.

[economic justice]

17. ????

But we're supposed to accept he can go toe-to-toe with Rove and Bush? But....he can't handle Larry King and Bob Dole????

[sendero]

23. I don't know what this is about...

... but I've seen enough of Clark to know he can handle King and Dole with half his brain removed.

And I'm a Dean supporter :)

[MidwestMomma]

21. Yeah Dole just said "A lot of supporters have DESERTED Clark..."

That son of a bitch.

And the CNN reporter did say Wes and family were at the hotel.

Guess some people wish he would just disappear....the media is trying there hardest. Must those that are Democrats do the same?

[janx]

13. Is this really necessary?

Or are you just getting off on it?

[economic justice]

20. It's PRIMARY night! Can we not make observations? <eom>

[Jerseycoa]

27. This is only one, janx

There are others. I did think this night would be different, but no.

[GiovanniC]

16. Think Weather

n/t

[incapsulated]

18. Oh, please..

Don't make me get another warning!

:grr:

[cally]

19. It sounded like he is losing his voice

and needs a rest to prepare for the next round.

[Indiana_Dem]

24. I think he's appeared very worn down lately

I hope he is okay. I think he's just tired. He looked tired lastnight in Dixville Notch.

[Doctor_J]

30. Agreed

he doesn't appear to be having as much fun as he was 3 weeks ago. Maybe going back home to the South and re-charge

[overground1]

22. maybe his handlers haven't decided what Clark thinks about this yet

[hlthe2b]

25. that comment is just plain nasty...

No respect for your fellow DUers-- including those who support Clark?

[1songbird]

28. Don't worry about it.

Some just don't get it.

[AP]

31. Has he been going down in the polls or up? Where was he in NH a week ago?

Three weeks ago?

[John_H]

32. I hope it's because he plans to tear the media a new one in his speech
