clinton's non-endorsement endorsement of Wesley Clark
"While I cannot take sides in the Democratic primary, I believe Wes, if he runs, would make a valuable contribution because he understands America's security challenges and domestic priorities," Clinton said. "I believe he would make a good president."
Clinton: Clark Would Make Good President
The impeached ex-ersatz prez "it was the terrorism, stupid" utter failure should know what it takes, eh?
So exactly what is the co-rapist couple up to now with this non-endorsement endorsement of fellow inept provincial operator, Wesley Clark?
Just the same ol' same ol'....

missus clinton's Cover Lies and the Howard Dean Syndrome
Mia T, 6.25.03
From this it follows--if one also notices that media genuflection before the altar of clinton is no longer de rigueur--that hillary clinton cannot survive the standard, lengthy, probing presidential-campaign process. An end run is her only option.
And contrary to conventional wisdom, time is not on her side. Not only are the clintons in general decline, but in this post-9/11 world, demographics favorable to liberals projected for 2008 will not resuscitate disfavored, dysfunctional, dangerous demagogues like the clintons.
Look, therefore, for the clintons to make their move in '04. Susan Estrich, Al From and The Times aren't on the same "Get the clintons off the stage!" page for no reason.

And I think Clinton is praising Wesley Clark as someone's VP. Sitting Senators almost never win the presidency, so it's unimaginable the Democrats would run 2 senators on the same ticket. Clark fills the second slot and geographically matches well with any of those northeastern candidates. Clinton is playing the Arkansas card when he pushes for Clark, throwin a bone to the home boys, and it would add some military clout to the ticket.

Just want to get their faces in the news.....
From what I understand, Powell personally hates Clark, along with Shwartzkoph, Clark didn't exactley endear himself to the brass, he just happened to be the most liberal guy who kissed up to the right people (clinton). William Cohen essentially relieved Clark from duty for trying to start world war 3 in the Balkans. If Clark were to run, Powell and Shwartzkoph would automatically jump into campaigning against him, out of pure utter hatred for the guy.
Personally, I think when Hillary makes her run in 2008, he will be named VP on the ticket. By raising his persona as much as possible now, and over the next few years, and as long as he stays loyal (he will), he makes a perfect VP pick in 2008.
NO WAY!! Hillary will never again take second place to anyone. I keep thinking there's an off chance the democrats will draft her in 2004, due to the poor showing their real candidates are making, and to keep Howard Dean from winning the nomination. Losing to Bush wouldn't hurt her chances in 2008, the run would give her more experience, and according to Larry Sabato, she doesn't have to resign her NY senate seat to run for the presidency.
But wait! Allowing herself to be drafted in 2004, would be "for the good of the party", and Hillary never does anything without herself being the sole beneficiary.
But smarter people than me say the same "NO WAY" to Hillary running in 2004. The wisdom being that she will run in 2008, and have a clear path because she and Bill are doing everything in their power to weaken the candidates running now, ensuring a Bush win. That gives her clear sailing to run and win in 2008.
We're all just guessing, of course, but an email friend of mine, very thoughtful, says that the democrat's secret weapon against Bush this time around would be Evan Byah.
Thanks. I expect Powell to defect anyday now, and that scenario was starting to haunt me.
He won't defect, ever. I'm not sure if it was woodward or burnstein, but one of them noted comments by alot of people around Powell, that he always looks to shore up his "moderate credentials" and does so quite often at the presidents expense, to the point where some people aren't even sure what he believes. He went to some function in NYC and basically made alot of jokes to that effect that he wants to be known as a moderate. When he was a general under clinton, he was thought of by them as being very hard conservative, so I think the WP writers have him pegged right, and they like him.
The whole thing between Powell and Clark is just personal stuff. It also doesn't help that alot of people at the top, think that Clark is a mad man, on CNN he's scary with his always "seeking to expand the conflict to global proportions". In the balkans he ordered the british, who refused, to bomb russian ships, its also widely rumored that he intentionally bombed the chinese embassy, and was even giving orders to "secure areas outside the present zone of conflict" (i.e. go into other neighboring countries not involved). He sees himself as wanting to be like a Patton or Ike. His whole search for a greater glory, the lefty's are absolute idiots with this guy, he's not one of them, he's not one of us either, he's delusional in his whims without care of ideology.
