58. he's fickle
Do you think he's really pro-life?
Do you think he loves the NRA?
Do you think he wanted to invade Iraq unilaterally?
Do you not care if he's lying or not??
Let's just get to it.
Do you think Clark is lying about what he thinks today?
If not, what difference does it make?


these are his positions today. they weren't his positions (relatively) yesterday. who knows that his positions will be tomorrow? he doesn't have to be "lying". maybe he'll just "nuance" his positions.

as another poster said, Clark's convictions have not (yet) stood the test of time. Clark hasn't yet come under the kind of concentrated fire that the eventual dem nominee will face. Clark hasn't yet faced the kind of pressure and temptation that real politicians face in office. nevertheless, Clark has already waffled on his Iraq War Resolution stance. or "nuanced" his supporters might say. but how can we be confident he won't "nuance" his current stance on other issues?

he doesn't have a track record in electoral politics.
