64. Wesley Clark is impressive, no doubt
and if he throws his hat in the ring, things will change, no doubt about that either. But what someone asked about his positions on things - that's going to be very important. And thus far, he has had the luxury of being able to say one or two liners in answer to those kinds of questions.

He has the advantage and disadvantage of being "outside the beltway" - advantage because he's a fresh face, and doesn't have that kind of baggage, and disadvantage because he doesn't realize what it takes to get policies and legislation enacted in this country - it's definitely one of those don't watch sausage being made things.

He's very handsome, very well spoken, he TOO has a nuanced stand on this past war and on the use of military forces in general, and I would be very happy to support him if he is the final Dem nominee.

He is not however, my first choice.
