Reply #8: Clark Dean's VP

[Quixote1818]

What this is about is Clark pulling away the Dean/Clark option that the Dean camp put out there to shore up Dean's weakness on National Security. I have been on several Dean Blogs and it's like Dean/Clark has become part of the Dean campaign. A lot of people on the fence for Dean are now less likely to put support behind Dean because Clark won't be on the ticket. Dean desperately needs someone on the ticket who can shore up his weakness on National Security in the middle of the war on Terror. If not I don't see how he can be perceived as a viable candidate. Clark's team realized that Clark is the second choice of most Dean people but with him off the ticket for sure Dean becomes less interesting all buy himself and Clark begings to look better. Smart move by the Clark people!
