Reply #2: Nobody is a lock to win against Dubya, dude

No matter what people around here hope and wish. All we can do is put forward the candidate most likely to appeal to the greatest number of voters out there.

If it was Joe Lieberman, I'd support Joe Lieberman.

The nation has to come above the party, and the nation needs an end to the Bush disaster.

From my point of view, Clark has the wit, charm and appearance to be attractive to the large numbers of undecided voters out there, and has the credentials to give Republicans the ability to vote for him without feeling they are betraying their country.

I don't see any of the other candidates being able to give a broad range of voters a reason to vote FOR him rather than AGAINST Bush.

It's just a practical matter of political reality.
