Wesley Clark

[YRABNNRM]

He's always been somewhat of an interesting character to me for some reason, I don't know why. I remember right after the election there was some talk of a 2008 run from him, what do you all think?

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

Yes / Too early to tell

[P.J. McDuff]

I certainly hope he does. As someone with such a glittering military career and southern roots he'd be a pretty formidable candidate. I reckon a Warner/Clark ticket or the other way round could beat anyone the GOP put against them.

[Reignman]

He'll run, get somewhere, and ultimately won't win the nomination (though he might do better than he did last time).

[Dr. Cynic]

He'll run, but it's too soon to tell if he'll get anywhere.

[BushKenya]

He'll run, but won't get out of the barn before the door is slammed shut.

My opinion of Clark changes with the tides.  At times he comes off as a smart guy with great ideas and a boat load of experience to back it up.  Other times he comes of as nothing more than a Monday Morning Quarterback.

I respect Clark and believe he was a good general and even better soldier, but when I look at him, I do not see a sucessful Presidential candidate.

Heres a question for his supporters.  If he does run, where does he get the money to finance his campaign?  W/ Hillary in the race and Feingold (possibly Gore) gobbling up the netroot's money, Clark will have no one to turn to.

[TheresNoMoney]

Richardson and Clark are my top two choices for vice-president.

[kashifsakhan]

I think he should run, but i dont think he'll have the finances to keep campaigning and will probably drop out towards the end of the primaries.

I also agree with what has been said earlier that:
1- He'd make a good president, and
2- He'd be a good choice for vice president, regardless of who gets the nomination.

[LINCOLN REPUBLICAN]

No/No

Clark may be a General, but he is no Eisenhower.

[Keystone Phil]

No/No. He is a nobody again.

[© Tweed the Younger]

Probably not/no.  The only people that like him are the DailyKos people (I really don't know why they do but whatever) and they'll have Feingold or Gore so he'd have no base at all.

[Pictor Ignotus]

No, maybe veep if he starts kissing ass right now. He's too kooky.

[Clay]

Wesley Clark is a joke.  If he runs, he'll do just as well as the last time.

[MAS117]

Yes hes running, no he wont get anywhere. If he is smart hell stay out keep his mouth shut for Sec. of Defense or State, or VP, but hes nto a good VP choice.

[Michael Z]

Yes/No

[GOP = Terrorists]

If Clinton gets the nomination (which I don't think is going to happen) Clark will be her VP choice.  There is no doubt about this at all in my mind.  Remember who pushed Clark into running last time....

I think that he would be a good VP choice for all 3 of the major candidates (Feingold, Warner, Clinton) as he brings the foreign policy and national security credentials to the party.  Infact I cant think of another possible candidate who brings better ones to the party than Commander of NATO.

[LINCOLN REPUBLICAN]

New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson brings far better national security credentials to the Democrats than does Wesley Clark any day.

Besides that, Richardson brings proven policy, legislative, and executive credentials to the table, which are completely lacking in Clark.

[Vasall des Midas]

"No/Yes" is an illogical option. Unless the question is meant to be "would he get anywhere". [/grammar police]

GTFO kthnx

People have voted for it anyway...

This is exactly right. Of course there is that little China security thing.

[GOP = Terrorists]

New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson brings far better national security credentials to the Democrats than does Wesley Clark any day.

I could see foriegn policy but national security?  Don't see it.

[Conan]

I think he will become a VP or something. He would be a smart candidate because he will carry security credentials and win Arkansas for the Pres nominee.
