So what does tonight tell us about Clark?
Kerry claims victory, and dismisses those stalking
Edward's star rises, his smile igniting
Lieberman faces reality, and closes the curtain.
Sharpton places and claims his seat at the table
Dean looks ahead. The Michigan gamble.
DK, keep singing - someone will listen.

What about Wes?

3. Well, without being so poetic...
I'd say it looks great for Clark, to have faired so well with so little media coverage -- except for sniping and dismissals issuing forth from the right-wing echo chamber.

13. How do we overcome this?
We have to take the fight to them
We need to schedule more appearances with the pundits.
Letterman et all.
Play the game, get on TV, and then blast away.
Paper endorcements are great - but who heard?

5. Tonight we learned that he is a player
He's going to live to fight another day. But I don't think we learned that he is going to win anything. I'm not terribly impressed by a squeaker in a three-way race.

And I like Clark. A lot. But all I think he managed to do is survive until the next round.

7. I think it tells us
that little has changed. He did pretty well, but Kerry's clearly the frontrunner. There's still a long way to go, and I agree with the earlier poster that Clark is likely going to the VP nominee if he doesn't win the nomination.

8. For someone in his first run for office ever, the second round of voting,
This result is FANTASTIC! He gets better every day! Now if we can just do something about the media!

10. it tells us there is another alternative
to Kerry whom many of us DON'T like. I'm grateful for Clark and Edwards in this race. I couldn't STOMACH a walk-away by John Kerry.

15. Cark is in limbo right now
In a sense, his head is on the chopping block, but he survived the ax falling yesterday.
