Does anyone else think that one of tonight's biggest losers (in addition to the obvious, Gephardt and Dean) might have been Wesley Clark?

Skipping Iowa always seemed a questionable strategy to me. Now, Clark might be lost in the New Hampshire shuffle as a Kerry-Dean death match ensues. And Edwards's unexpectedly strong showing throws a wrench into Clark's Southern strategy. At least, that's the way I see it...

Ya, Clark was a big loser, but he was never really in the running anyway. I don't care what the polls suggested. The press would have eaten him alive if he really gained traction.

Well, it might help Clark a little to know where to position himself in NH judging from the results in Iowa. Clark's a Clintonite, so switching his political position to fit what he needs is acceptable strategy for him. When is NH?
