Clarke's credibility was absolutely shredded today.

We all know that, but the majority of Americans weren't watching or following this closely. They will get a recap on the local newscast tonight. This is a sample of headlines that are hitting now:

Former Official Clarke Warned of 'Hundreds Dead'

Terrorism Fight `Not an Urgent Issue' After Bush Took Office, Clarke Says

Clarke: Urgency was lacking

Have you seen the ratings for the nightly newscasts? They're spiraling down into the dumper. Why do you think FNC's ratings are climbing? Folks have caught on. And even if people do still watch them, they know better than to take them as gospel now. The shine is well and truly off the apple.

Um, when I said Clarke's credibility was shredded I meant it and contrary to what you say, I meant for all Americans to perceive.

I can see and hear the headlines, but I completely disagree with you that the message will not get out. It will and it already is.
