I can appreciate your position. I think (from my perspective) there is some room to debate Clark's position on the war at various points in time (Clark himself has said he stumbled out of the gate) - but personally I really like Clark tremendously. He brings some very strong credentials to the table - that are a perfect compliment to the credentials Dean brings to the table. I do have some concerns about Clark and answering questions straight - but I think he's still just adjusting to the process. I see wisdom in Dean for seeking Clark's advice well before Clark decided to run. I've said before I would really like to see a Dean/Clark ticket - as I think the combination would be very potent. However, politics is politics I guess - and they are all playing to win.

Anyhow, thanks for not taking my post as flame-bait - I truly believe we need to find our common ground amongst the candidates and figure out ways to channel our synergies into victory in 2004. I think all of our candidates have very strong points - for me Dean epitomizes leadership, and is doing what needs to be done to become President.

People are not "owed" the Presidency - Presidents make themselves, and I truly believe Dean is on the path to victory in that regard.

Time will tell.
