Reply #: let me back up...

I certainly don't think Clark would sign on to lose. In this "vast conspiracy" I pictured the Clintons not letting him in on their motivations. I thought maybe they would back him just to convince him to run, and then they would see how he hits the polls. Kind of "testing the water" for Hillary to jump in. Perhaps even why they would want him to jump in but be embarrassed on a few issues, like he was on the plane.

Anyway, it's all kind of unraveling in my mind and I don't really buy it myself, so thanks for your input and reassurance.
