Clark talking points
Here are some phrases that Gen Clark should repeat:

"Knowledge of history could have prevented..."

"Soldiers in harm's way..."

"Soldiers live in horrific conditions..."

"Midguided economic plan"

"Tax relief for people who will spend it on food and medicine instead of political contributions"

"Environmental devastation"

"Restore our treaties throughout the world"

"Restore our standing as a leader instead of a loose cannon"

Then, when Smirk starts to crack under the strain, start up with

"Complete 9/11 investigation, as befitting our open democracy"

"Complete WMD investigation"

"The Resident's lawyer is representing the people who attacked our country"

This could be a fun 14 months for us.

1. Clark run would help us a lot.
The debate about "being fit to lead" would immediately put the moron Bush at a disadvantage, considering the military record of each of them. People would be exposed to this "big-time". Combined with Kerry's run, this discussion would be front and center. If Clark wins, Kerry would be a good #2. Even if Kerry beats Clark, the point would have already been made that both exceed the moron in capability. Clark would be a good #2.

Clark's "I told you so", re: failures in Iraq and worldwide hatred would work with Dean's point about this issue. If Dean beats Clark, again the point has been made and the moron is on the short end on this issue.

Am I making sense? Just thinking out loud here. I'm looking at our chances overall, not just backing one candidate yet.

Note: I lean to Dean, and like these three candidates a lot. They would make a great primary.

2. And those are just the ones he could use for STARTERS...
You know Dub & Co. DON'T want Gen. Clark to run; more than they claim they fear John Edwards, I'll bet. He could lay their rotten tree trunk open so fast, and so completely, that they'd look like nothing more than the termites running out of it! :7

RUN, GENERAL, RUN!!! :kick:

B-)

3. That's what I am looking for
While, the way things are going, Dean or Kerry or Edwards may be able to beat Bush next year, what I'm looking for is an historic butt-kicking. I'd like to see Duh get a smaller % of the vote than Poppy did in 92. I'd like to see him forced to attend debates, preferably by relentless attacks on his manhood. I would like to see him forced into a choice between collecting 35% of the vote and cancelling the elections.

The talking points seem to be endless, and Gen Clark is one of the few Dems who has access to the media on a regular basis.
