So - Clark's truthful comments about McCain supposedly disqualify him for a VP slot

[EffieBlack]

But McCain's comments about his wife and about Chelsea Clinton have no bearing on his fitness to be President of the United States?

This is utter bull.

1. Who said the remarks disqualify him???

[Clark2008]

4. A pundit.

Seriously... a pundit. No one else who matters has said such a thing.

[NJmaverick]

5. Are you serious, some idiot pundit?

[Clark2008]

7. Yep..

Some guy named Michael Scheurer in Florida.

2. Clark is not out of the running unless the polls start shifting in favor of McCain.

3. And someone's opinion - not Obama's.

[FrenchieCat]

6. No it doesn't.....unless we keep repeating what the pundits say; that it does.

Seriously.......the television really cannot be the boss of us to this extent.

This is just a moment out of the campaign.....a snapshot, unless we make a bigger deal about it than our 24/7 (need something to talk about) cable media.

8. When did Clarke even enter the short list of VP. slotters...?

9. Obama said we should not demean anothers service...

Clark in no way demeaned mccain's service. So there is no problem. Clark only stated the obvious fact that being held captive does not qualify anyone to be president.

13. But the media is saying that Clark did demean McCain's service

On MSNBC alone, the first three shows this morning said that Clark was "distorting", "attacking", and "parsing" McCain's record. And then they invited on right wing talking heads to condemn Clark. You're right: Clark in no way demeaned McCain's record. But the media is making a strong effort to brainwash the American people into thinking that he did. They want a controversial story to sell commercial time, even if they have to get it by completely fabricating one.

10. No, on the contrary

Clark should be moving up the list for VP after his demolition of McWar's record.

11. Ive read that same sentiment on DU as well.

And I think its total bullshit. In fact, it makes me favor him more. Go get 'em Wes.

[DevonRex]

12. Of course not. They're already playing the game like a team. nt
