Clark endorsed for president by legislators
The Associated Press 2/2/2004, 5:23 p.m. CT
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- Democratic presidential candidate Wesley Clark was endorsed Tuesday by several members of the Alabama Legislature.
From Our Advertiser
State Sen. Jimmy Holley, D-Elba, said the retired Army general and former NATO supreme allied commander is the only candidate "with a proven record of success in wartime."
"The people of Alabama need and deserve a real leader in the White House who will not divide, but unite all Americans and lead us forward into a renewed era of peace and prosperity," Holley said.
Holley was joined at the news conference at the Alabama Statehouse by Sen. Tom Butler, D-Huntsville, and Rep. Thad McClammy, D-Montgomery. They said they were representing 15 lawmakers who support Clark.

I want the GOP to fear the strength of our candidates.

11. 42% of Alabama voters chose Gore. |
|
Alabama's one of the most heavily Republican states and yet Bush only won with 56.47%. That's not a huge margin. This is why I tell people to drop the business about "writing off the South." We're not as uniformly Republican as people think.

8. Will any of this get mainstream press? |
|
The Diplomat and Ambassador story, this particular one, Lt. Gov of Wisconsin, so on and so forth. How long can they ignore the man?
