98. Comparing Kerry to Clark is like comparing apples to oranges.
Edited on Tue May-31-05 07:28 PM by Skwmom
Clark's strengths go far beyond foreign policy. His brilliance, integrity, and love of country will get the Democrats much further than some nominee espousing domestic rhetoric that Rove can easily combat by portraying the messenger (Democratic nominee) as a political opportunist who is espousing said rhetoric for pure self-serving political gain.

The Republicans successfully portrayed Kerry as a political opportunist who would say and do anything to get elected. At the Clinton library dedication, Bush Sr. praised Clinton for being a fast talking, political schmoozer. Hmmmm.... could this be how the Republicans plan to paint the Democratic party in order to ensure a "generation of dominance?"

The Democrats need to put forth a candidate that people can actually believe in, otherwise Rove is right - the Republicans will control for a generation.
