Clark supporters: I'm sorry, you guys.

[Padraig18]

It's a tough day for you all, and I understand your disappointment. The General is a classy guy, and he made a classy exit!

1. It's a sad day for all Democrats

Clark is a great candidate. I don't think we've seen the last of him though thank goodness.

[Dookus]

2. thanks padraig...

he is a class act all the way.

[Padraig18]

4. Yes, he is!

:)

[Guava Jelly]

3. YES HE IS AND THANX

I bet Wes isnt done.
he is a classic overachiever.
And i dont think he likes to loose.
He would make a damn good senator
Secretary of state maybe

5. thanks just wish CNN morons

would have let us see the WHOLE exit and not just arbitrarily cut it off. Judy deserves to be spanked!

8. "Judy deserves to be spanked!"

Nah, she'd like it!

18. No woman "deserves" violence.

It wasn't her, anyhow, it was the CNN director.

6. Thank you my friend

May the grassroots movement live and flourish.

[MaineDem]

7. I agree with you on this

I understand how the General's supporters feel. I've been there before, too.

"What doesn't kill us makes us stronger." The Democratic Party will be stronger because of Clark's campaign.

9. Heya, MaineDem!

Do we actually have any offical results from Maine yet, or is that one lady still counting ballots in her kitchen? (j/k) :P

[MaineDem]

13. Nothing official yet

But I'm trying to stay out of that discussion in order to keep what's left of my sanity. :)

[Padraig18]

15. LOL! Does no one in Maine own a calculator, paper and pencil?

I could hjave counted 15000 ballots by myself between Sunday and today, I wager! Sheesh! :P

[MaineDem]

16. It's not actually a counting issue

But all campaigns are observing it so I'm not worried that things are being done fairly.

I really am trying to stay away from finding out more about it because of a role I may have to play down the road.

10. I sure would have liked to see The General go all the way to the

convention, he and his supporters would have been a force to contend with. Maybe you all still can, I hope.

[Lisa0825]

11. My sympathy to ya'll too....

Clark is a good man, and I was really sorry to hear he was withdrawinng. Last night and today, I was hoping it wouldn't be true. And I am disgusted with CNN's slap in the face.

I do hope that the future holds a place in politics for Clark, and I hope it will be in the very near future.

[MuseRider]

12. Joining in.

Thanks for this thread Padraig. To those of you out there feeling battered right now, I am sorry. Gen. Clark and his supporters are a class act. :hug:

[VolcanoJen]

14. "This Old Soldier Will NOT Fade Away."

Thank you, Padraig. It's been a pretty crappy 24 hours for us Wes Supporters.

:-(

I just finished downloading all the WesCam episodes from the site; I'm worried it will shut down soon, and I want to remember how much fun it was being a member of the Draft Clark movement, and then supporting Wes as a Democratic Candidate. We had a great run, and I met the most wonderful people.

Thank you, General, from the bottom of my heart, for inspiring me from the first time I really started listening to you. The last time a politician inspired me was 1988; I do hope I don't have to wait that long before it happens again.

Chin up, Clarkies!! :-) I love you all.
