Clark: Hillary could be my VP
Why did he say this? It'll just ramp up the right wing paranonia.

Wesley Clark: Hillary Clinton could be my veep

Associated Press
Posted December 9 2003, 4:05 PM EST

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. -- On the presidential campaign trail Tuesday, Wesley Clark said he has not ruled out Hillary Clinton as his running mate, if he wins the Democratic presidential nomination.

Clark praised the New York senator as a great person and a great leader and said he's admired her for 20 years.

8. What makes you so sure?
He hasn't admired her for 20 years? They've known each other a long time.

2. probably same case as his intimations that Spitzer would be VP
somebody asks, "Are you considering Mrs Clinton as a possible VP"

"I wouldn't rule it out."

3. Funny That Clark Can't Get Any Media Attention
Unless he responds to a question about the Clintons.

No matter what answer he gave, the story would be in the press.

Too bad he can't work it in when talking about healthcare, education or jobs - then maybe the media would give him more time.

would be on his list of VP. The KEY word in that title is "COULD" be. So, what's the big deal. Personally, I think he'll choose Graham. JMCPO

7. That headline is EXTREMELY misleading
He said he did not rule her out. He didn't rule me out either.

Chalk this one up to the media whores... Clark is only guilty of not bashing Hillary.

11. It's mostly republicranks what got a bone-on
for Sen. Hillary C. this year.

I'm begining to think the RNC is getting worried about low voter turnout if there's no connection to the Clinton's in '04.
