Doesn't Wes Clark's endorsement of Kerry assure the Clinton's endorsement?

I expect the former president to endorse Kerry any time after Super Tuesday, maybe before. (If he wins a majority)

I wonder if Hillary will step forward before the New York primary and campaign with him. Hope so!

1. Clinton has said he'll remain neutral
& I believe he will.

As far as Clark goes, one has nothing to do with the other.

Clinton helped Clark, just like he helped all the other candidates.

2. According to the Right, yes...
Of course, Clark was a disruption to ensure Hillary's run in '08.


Good Grief! What a bunch of nuts! (those righties)

9. I meant nothing like that. I'm just looking forward to New York
and looking for possible advantages for my candidate.

That slam was uncalled for. I meant no harm. I posted my beliefs. Jesus. Lighten up.

BTW, where the fuck are you coming from suggesting that I, a lifelong Democrat, would respect anything that comes from republicans. This attack crap sucks. I'm not the enemy. I'm not attacking anyone.

10. Don't get defensive or take it as an attack
It's just been their talking points (to rile up their base). It's not really happening so no need to worry.

Peace

11. I think everything that has been posited by the republicans is ridiculous.

I'm certainly no conduit to any of that.

13. I know
I was using the opportunity to show that was their theory. They see Clintons behind every tree as well as knowing their base hates them. Sorry 'bout that.

4. no, clinton isn't endorsing anyone (why not just endorse clark ?)
you are assuming all those stories about clinton being behind clark are true. while it's true clinton likes clark and may have even favored him, it was never as some tried to make it out to be. clinton has been helping kerry also and said many good things about him. if the whole clinton/clark stuff was true, clinton would have just endorsed clark. but clinton is doing as he has always said he would. he will just endorse whoever ends up winning the nomination.

7. Fair enough.
It was wishful thinking on my part. No slam to anyone else intended.

8. i know
i love clinton also but he has been consistent on not endorsing anyone. but he has said many good things about john kerry and if kerry wins the nomination i'm sure clinton would love supporting him.

6. No, But Kerry MUST Invoke Clinton's Economic Prosperity Against Edwards
who is now using the failed Protectionist anti-NAFTA rhetoric of the Dean Campaign.

Hell, at least Dean had more of a claim of being an "Outsider".

12. I believe Clinton will keep his word
And just endorse the nominee when he is chosen.
